+** M-x compile has been completely overhauled

+It now uses font-lock for turning compiler output into hypertext.  Quite a few
+more kinds of messages are recognized.  Messages that are recognized as
+warnings or informational come in orange or green, instead of red. 
+Informational messages are by default skipped with `next-error'.
