emacs -Q
 
M-x apropos-variable RET frame-alist RET
 
Click one of the variable names. You see the help for that variable, and
this message appears:
 
"Type M-x switch-to-prev-buffer RET to restore previous buffer, C-M-v to
scroll help"
 
In Emacs 23 you correctly see this message instead:
 
"Type C-x 4 C-o RET to restore the other window, C-M-v to scroll help."
