bug#9012: 24.0.50; weird window behavior of next-error

[Tom Tromey]

I run the Gtk Emacs.  I have 2 frames displayed.

In one frame I run M-x compile.  I switch to the *compilation* buffer
and make it be the only window in the frame.

Then I switch to the other frame and type M-x next-error.

Emacs switches the focus back to the first frame, and puts me into the
buffer with the error -- but in the sole window in the first frame.
That is, the *compilation* buffer completely disappears.

I expect instead for point to move in *compilation* and for the error
location to show up in the current window in the second frame.

Failing that I at least expect that the *compilation* buffer will not
disappear entirely.
