Exactly.  This is the most expected behavior, because the user
associates the buffer visited through C-x ` with the compilation
buffer from which it was visited, and will expect that next-error
will show next compilation errors in the same source buffer.

It seems nobody really tried yet to use two or more different
compile/grep/occur processes at the same time.  Otherwise,
it would be apparent that this behavior is the most useful.
