Well, after trimming .emacs I found the culprit:

(custom-set-variables
 '(compilation-window-height 8))

I've tried other values (3, 15, 30) and the bug was still there.

If (compilation-window-height 8) is removed from .emacs and a session
is launched, the compile window output is ok. Later, if I set the
variable to whatever number (with set-variable) the compiler's error
messages appear at the beginning of the buffer again.

Perhaps it is useful to note that always the text

cd t:/sec/exp/  # -*-compilation-*-
Entering directory `t:/sec/exp/'
icl p.cpp

Compilation exited abnormally with code 2 at Mon May 10 17:53:55

appears starting on the top line of the window, so the compiler error
messages remains invisible until you scroll up.
