This "works" only because there's a bug when processing the
`pop-up-window' specifier whose cdr must be a list of (window . side)
pairs.  I suppose you didn't use the customization interface :-(

So what happens is that because of this bug Emacs doesn't pop up a new
window but reuses an existing one.

>>> but not for code that use switch-to-buffer-other-window.

I checked in a fix which should handle `switch-to-buffer-other-window'
as well.  Please have another look.

Thanks, martin
