You can make *compilation* a special display buffer name with the
following (untested) :

(add-to-list 'special-display-buffer-names
		   '("*compilation*" 
		     (menu-bar-lines . 0)
		     (vertical-scroll-bars . nil)
		     (tool-bar-lines . 0)
		     (foreground-color . "gray")
		     (background-color . "black")
		     (height . 24) (width . 80)
		     (font .
		   "-Misc-Fixed-Medium-R-SemiCondensed--13-120-75-75-C-*-*")))

Make sure that *compilation* is not a same-window-buffer-names...
