* bug#11995: vc-compilation-mode name and implementation

The newly added vc-compilation-mode function does not have the best
name, -mode functions stand for modes, this is not one.

Currently the preferred way to define modes is to use `defined-derived-mode'...

Also the implementation seems to be a bit more complicated than needed:
there

Defining a vc-default-compilation-mode function should simplify the
implementation.  vc-make-backend-sym is something that very few things
need to call.

I'm leaving on vacation, so I won't be able to do much about this for a while.

(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately got no response at
the time.)

It is perhaps not an ideal name, but it's probably too late to change
now, though.

I think it looks like something was left out of this message?  I'm not
sure what this is referring to.

More information was requested, but no response was given within a
month, so I'm closing this bug report.  If the problem still exists,
please respond to this email and we'll reopen the bug report.
