Indeed -- I just did a `C-h m' now, and now I'm also seeing the problem:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument listp t)
  documentation(auto-compression-mode)
  describe-mode()
  funcall-interactively(describe-mode)
  call-interactively(describe-mode nil nil)
  command-execute(describe-mode)

But it doesn't seem to happen after every compilation -- perhaps this
only happens after recompiling a particular file?  Most odd.

Hm...

Could it be when compiling regenerates the etc/DOC file, perhaps?
