This is due to the following part in the implementation of
`make-terminal-frame' in frame.c:

#ifdef MAC_OS
  if (sf->output_method != output_mac)
    error ("Not running on a Macintosh screen; cannot make a new Macintosh 
frame");
#else

It was added in 1999 and seems to be intended for Mac OS 8 and 9.
I've changed the above condition to #ifdef MAC_OS8, so the bug will be
fixed in Emacs 22.2.
