If gcc is generating UTF-8 sequences, that suggests that you are using
a UTF-8 locale, so you should probably have:
(setq process-coding-system-alist '(".*" . utf-8))
OK, that's helpful - thanks.
I think you meant
(setq process-coding-system-alist '((".*" . utf-8)))
because the form you wrote results in
Wrong type argument: listp, ".*"
With the process coding system set, the quotation marks now display as
^X/^Y:
inotify.c:247: error: ^Xfoo^Y undeclared (first use in this function)
some improvement, but not quite what I want to be seeing ;-)
