compilation-next-error says: Moved past last error
even if there was no errors that it found.
So it should differentiate such cases.
M-x compile

make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

OK, there was no error, so instead of "Moved past last error" it should
say "Didn't find any errors" when asked.
emacs-version "29.1"
