Which version of Emacs is that ?
Note that using `pop-to-buffer' is The Right Way, so the bug is that
pop-to-buffer should simply *never* fail with a "Cannot switch buffers
in a dedicated window".  And as far as I know, it indeed never does
(although it used to fail in some cases in Emacs-20.4), so could you
give us a simple recipe starting from `emacs -q --no-site-file' to
reproduce the problem ?
