my question: Does pop-to-buffer use the lisp-version of display-buffer or the
C-version?

display-buffer is itself a built-in function, which means there's
only a C version of it.


More precisely: there's only a C implementation of it.  But there is a Lisp
binding as well.


I have adviced display-buffer but when i call pop-to-buffer then
this advice seems not to be called...

You cannot advice built-in functions.

Actually, you can, but it will only have an effect if the function is called

via its Lisp binding.  Since built-in functions almost always call other
built-in functions via their C binding, advising display-buffer will not
affect its behavior when it's called by pop-to-buffer.
