[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
In git rev e335e1949, back in 2001,
compilation-parse-errors-filename-function was introduced to compile.el, to
postprocess filenames. Somewhere in the last few months, emacs has stopped
calling that function from compilation-find-file, so it no longer works.
(It's still called from a function that now only is used for display, so it
doesn't actually find the processed filename.)

This patch re-adds it to the new processing path:

+                          (find-file-noselect processed-name))
               fmts (cdr fmts)))
       (setq dirs (cdr dirs)))
     (while (null buffer)    ;Repeat until the user selects an existing
file.

By the way, I did file an emacs contributor release form some years ago.

Hope this is helpful;
