I doubt that `bbdb-y-or-n-p' acts differently compared to `y-or-n-p'
in Emacs, since (fboundp 'yes-or-no-p-dialog-box) is always nil in
Emacs...

(defvar bbdb-force-dialog-boxes nil)
(defun bbdb-y-or-n-p (prompt)
(prog1
(funcall
(cond ((and bbdb-force-dialog-boxes
(fboundp 'yes-or-no-p-dialog-box))
(when (and (fboundp 'raise-frame)
(not (frame-visible-p (selected-frame))))
(raise-frame (selected-frame)))
'yes-or-no-p-dialog-box)
(t 'y-or-n-p))
prompt)
(message " ")))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Thus, in Emacs, this is simply...
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun bbdb-y-or-n-p (prompt)
(prog1
(y-or-n-p prompt)
(message " ")))

If you don't like SPC for y-or-n-p, remove the binding from
`query-replace-map' as suggested in the previous posting.
(Disclaimer: I'm only a BBDB user. The BBDB developers might have a
different opinion.)
