191 - Boss fram manipulation disabled other unit frame control
The function you have to manipulate the boss frames that are hooked to the minimap causes other addons like Pitbull Unit Frames to lose the ability to call and "skin" these frames. The manipulation of Boss"n"TargetFrame and the use of ClearAllPoints on initialize of chinchilla is causing these addons to not be able to hook into these frames at all
It was not until HFC that this became apparent but disabling the code to manipulate the boss frame eliminates the errors and allows the manipulation and hide/show ability of these frames.
There is not a need to as it is covered it numerous other addons like move anything and nearly all unit frame addons. Maintaining this functionality runs the risk of introducing taint into secure function calls and it might be best to simply retire this section of code.

I understand the boss target frames are hooked to the minimap but they are also manipulated by many other addons (stuf, suf, pitbull, zperl, elvui,supervillian, moveanything, etc) and as such are in conflict with what chinchilla does.
