Now that you documented it, you can probably rely on it.
But if I undocument it before the release, then there's a risk it
might change.  If I were you I'd use

(defun dirc-setup-server-buffer (process)
  "Set up the server buffer for PROCESS."
  (let ((buffer (pop-to-buffer-same-window
                  (dirc-make-process-buffer-name process))))
    (set-process-buffer process buffer)))
    (with-current-buffer buffer
      (set (make-local-variable 'dirc-buffer-type) 'server)
      (set (make-local-variable 'dirc-process process)))))

which I find more readable and where you don't need to worry about it.
