So IMHO the only possible culprit is the call to `fill-region' in
`display-warning' which goes as:

	  (when (and warning-fill-prefix (not (string-match "\n" message)))
	    (let ((fill-prefix warning-fill-prefix)
		  (fill-column 78))
	      (fill-region start (point))))

Please try to edebug `fill-region' (with the *Compile-Log* buffer
displayed in some window to see what's going on).  I suppose one of
your .emacs settings wrt to filling cause the behavior you observe.
