bug#7069: Compilation from within emacs becomes slower and slower until

Subject: bug#7069: Compilation from within emacs becomes slower and slower until Emacs is restarted

The first few compiles, using "compile" to invode  GNU make,
from within Emacs, run at "command-line speed" but then the overall
time increases. The first 10 compiles are OK, but after about 20 compiles,
a compilation that  "time make -k" reports as taking

        real    0m0.127s
        user    0m0.100s
        sys     0m0.016s

takes more than five seconds. Then I give up and restart Emacs, and
everything is fine for another 10 compiles. And so on.

Here is some output from "strace emacs"

        socket(PF_FILE, SOCK_STREAM, 0)         = 3 <0.000016>
        connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, path=@"/tmp/.X11-unix/X0"}, 20) = 0 
<0.000015>

Here I attach strace to a running emacs just before i start compilation
and detach as soon as the compilation is done. The first few selects are
probably from before the time I press enter to execute the compile command.
