Re: [Emacs-diffs] /srv/bzr/emacs/trunk r109160: * lisp/vc/vc-dispatcher.el (vc-compilation-mode): Add, based on

[Stefan Monnier]

Could you explain this patch?
I do not understand what it's trying to do.  Using compilation-mode on
the output of those tools doesn't sound very useful.  What's the use-case?

This is clearly wrong: error-regexp-alist seems to be meant to hold
a symbol, but its name implies it should hold an alist.
