It actually happens with only pop-up-frames.

Turns out the TeX-parse-function is only ever called from TeX-next- 
error, so changing TeX-parse-TeX should be a fairly safe thing to do.

(defun TeX-parse-TeX (reparse)
 "Find the next error produced by running TeX.
Prefix by C-u to start from the beginning of the errors."
 (let ((old-buffer (current-buffer))
        (default-major-mode major-mode))
   (with-current-buffer (TeX-active-buffer)
     (if reparse
         (TeX-parse-reset))
     (goto-char TeX-error-point)
     (TeX-parse-error old-buffer))))
