> The display-delayed-warnings does not conform with display-buffer-no-window.

Thanks for the bug report.

> To test this, I create a new directory and write an init.el with the

>           '(("\\`\\*\\(Warnings\\|Compile-Log\\|Org Links\\)\\*\\'"
>              (display-buffer-no-window)
>              (allow-no-window . t))))

`allow-no-window' is intended to be provided only by the caller,
when the caller can handle the nil value for window.

So here is the patch that implements this in the caller:
