Such 'bubbles', usually called regressions, might be less likely to appear
if, as Cyd suggested, there was a CC mode equivalent of compilation.txt.
I can't find this post now, so apologies if it reached a logical conclusion.
It might also be harder to implement than compilation.txt, as expressions
are probably not as self contained, but some kind of testuite seems essential
to prevent these issues from recurring.
