bug#17572: 24.3; Directory regexp compile.el

[Jannis Teunissen]

When compiling code from emacs (compile command calling make), it would
ask me to locate the source files with errors manually. E.g.,

Find this error in (default my_file.f90): ...

This happened when the file was in a different directory than I was
currently in. Same problem when running emacs -q --no-site-file

The problem seemed to be the compilation-directory-matcher variable. By
default, it is:
'("\\(?:Entering\\|Leavin\\(g\\)\\) directory `\\(.+\\)'$" (2 . 1))

However, my directory-change messages have the following form:
make[1]: Entering directory '/.../dir'

Note the ' instead of `. If I set compilation-directory-matcher to:
'("\\(?:Entering\\|Leavin\\(g\\)\\) directory [`']\\(.+\\)'$" (2 . 1)))
then everything works fine again.

gcc version 4.8.2
make version 4.0
emacs version 24.3.1
Debian jessie

Cheers, Jannis
