(this is not an epoch specific problem).

 is a particularly poor interaction between the Ultrix C compiler
and emacs/epoch's reading off of the error output. It appears that the
Ultrix C compiler spits out the cute little "-------^" one character
at a time, and that emacs doesn't handle a stream coming in such small
little pieces very well. An emacs guru will know more.

The problem does not occur when using gcc. As an added bonus,
compile.el can parse gcc's error output, so there's some reason to
want to do it :-)
