So the bug was in compile.el, mainly. Here's a fix (which I believe is
correct) for that:

compile.el used turn-on-font-lock unconditionally, supposedly to update
the font-locking keywords.

grep.el used the colorful output of grep without parsing it if
font-locking was off (thus giving the user an output with ^[31m). Of
course, someone who's playing with font-locking on/off in a grep buffer
executed with font-locking on will see those ^[31m; but it's a detail.
