I don't think this behavior is new, it's been around awhile.

Agreed, there's a real bug involved.  list-buffers calls
display-buffer and its DOC string reads:

If `pop-up-windows' is non-nil, always use the
current frame and create a new window regardless of whether the
buffer has a dedicated frame, and regardless of whether
OVERRIDE-FRAME was specified.

C-h v pop-up-windows
pop-up-windows's value is t

:-(

How does this work for you?
