OK, I'll watch out for if it repeats itself.

Given how sporadic the bug is (I've seen it once in at least a
fortnight), I'll leave my system unchanged until I reproduce, then
over-ride compilation-find-buffer (by C-x C-e on the modified defun)
and see if it fixes the problem.  If I simply apply the patch, and
never see the bug again, I won't know whether some peculiarity that
provoked it the first time has never repeated, or whether it's fixed.

Unfortunately, the session in which the bug showed up is now lost -
I've had a sporadic problem with my X server zorching my session when
I go to a virtual console (C-M-F1, etc.) and come back (C-M-F7); it
bit again last night :-(
