diff lisp/progmodes/compile.el @ 55299:19ff0d2ea8e8

(compilation-messages-start): New var. (compilation-mode): Don't setup next-error-function here. (compilation-setup): Set it up here instead (for minor modes as well). Make compilation-messages-start buffer local. (compilation-next-error-function): Use it. (compilation-forget-errors): Set compilation-messages-start.
