    compilation-mode now sets compilation-directory and prints it as a file-local
    variable.  ISTR it used to do this for default-directory.  grep-mode does the
    same but, in this case I think default-directory is more relevant.

Could you explain why you think so?  Won't both achieve the same
result: finding the grep hits in the right place?
