Wouldn't this be better shown in the echo area, if at all? The warnings are quite a pain in the buffer, given that I would normally copy&paste the whole contents from there. A quick look at vc.el suggests that `vc-do-command' calls `start- process', directing stdout and stderr into the current buffer.
