The problem with this message is that it is so long that the bit after ("from
filename") doesn't fit in 80 columns.  Also a warning-face isn't really needed
because it doesn't provide a wake up call: the user has just entered a command,
e.g, vc-diff or vc-print-log, so presumably he's already looking for the output
buffer.

I've used the same style as I've used for the GUD buffer.  If text in the
mode-line is going to be increasingly fontified, it might be a good idea to
have some consistency.
