Bug/problem with 'next-error command

I've noticed a bug/problem with the emacs command 'next-error.  If I
compile the following program (filename is test.c):

main ()
{
  i = j = 0;
  k = l = 0;
}

with the command "M-X compile" (giving "cc test.c" as the Compile
command), I get the following output in the *compilation* buffer:

cd /homes/gornish/
cc test.c
"test.c", line 3: i undefined
"test.c", line 3: j undefined
"test.c", line 4: k undefined
"test.c", line 4: l undefined

Compilation exited abnormally with code 1 at Tue Feb 12 14:24:07


If I now type "M-X next-error", the cursor goes to line 4 in the
test.c buffer, and in the *compilation* buffer, the 1st line 4 error
is displayed at the top of the buffer window.  In other words, all
errors on the 1st line that contains bugs (in this case, line 3) are
skipped.  This behavior is independent of where the cursor is located
when I do the compile, or what buffers are displayed in the various
windows when I do the compile.

thanks
