Of course, you must also change your `compilation-finish-function'.
STR is still the success message of the process. Instead of, you might
check the buffer for the error message, like this (untested):

(setq compilation-finish-function
      (lambda (buf str)
        (save-excursion
          (with-current-buffer buf
            (goto-char (point-min))
            (if (re-search-forward "exited abnormally" nil t)
                (message "compilation errors, press C-x ` to visit")
              ;;no errors, make the compilation window go away in 0.5 seconds
              (run-at-time 0.5 nil 'delete-windows-on buf)
              (message "NO COMPILATION ERRORS!"))))))

Best regards, Michael.
