Oops, I butchered the statement: after the second time you type 'e', the
"Grep finished..." message attains a non-nil compilation-message
text-property.

That's what I tried to figure out by adding the message statements but I
fail to understand how the compilation-message text-property is being
Added.  The relevant bits from *Messages* is at the end.

When I say 'e' for the first time then go back to grep-mode with C-c
C-c, there's no extra compilation-message text-property.

When I say 'e' for the second time around, till the end of
grep-change-to-grep-edit-mode, there's no extra compilation-message
text-property (lines marked with *).  But in the gap between
grep-change-to-grep-edit-mode and me saying C-c C-c (with no other
action being done by me in between), the extra compilation-message
text-property is added to the "Grep finished..." line.
