This is my understanding (I don't think what Jason is seeing is a bug).

mouse-1-click-follows-link works where the text has the mouse-face property:

(define-key map [follow-link] 'mouse-face)

In the compilation buffer this is only over the file and number.  In the
grep buffer it extends to the first match (or something like that).  Where
there is no mouse-face property, compile-goto-error works (on mouse-2).
