Sounds like this problem:

For me, the culprit is cedet.
When investigating the thing a little more (in order to come up with a
minimal reproduction set), I found that compilation output appears
fluently until I load "cedet-1.0pre3/common/cedet.el".
Henrik, do you use cedet, too?
I found a message in the emacs-pretest-bug archives
(http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-pretest-bug/2006-10/msg00013.html)
that suggests installing cedet from CVS. So I'll do just that.
If it does work afterward, do you think one should still file a bug
report, as the solution would require a non-released cedet version?
