bug#7726: reveal-mode bypassed by compile-goto-error

No I really meant pre-redisplay-hook.  I don't see why
post-post-command-hook would have anything to do with this problem.
E.g. I think a case that needs to work is when you're in the *compile*
buffer and select one entry to display the source but while staying in
the *compile* buffer: the current buffer before and after the command is
*compile*, so no amount of post/pre-command-hooks can tell you that some
other buffer needs revealing.
