As mentioned above, this is the same issue as M-x grep.  I hope we can
fix it for Emacs-24 (by making compile.el use syntax-propertize-function
rather than font-lock), but for Emacs-23 the only solution I can offer
is to configure the relevant faces so they look the same as default.
What I'm doing manually is cursing a bit, then switching buffers and 
manually typing (global-font-lock-mode 0) to make these popups visible. 
 I wonder if we couldn't automate that process?  (Excepting, perhaps 
the cursing.)
Would it make sense to push the current value of global-font-lock-mode, 
run the rest of what these guys do, then restore the value of 
global-font-lock-mode afterwards?  That is, wrap them in a sort of 
context manager?
The end result for me would be a legible buffer and for everyone else 
would be essentially the same thing they have now.
