When forming the prefix to output error msgs in gnu gcc format, the
lack of a type ($ or @) when referencing ARGV causes error messages.

When invoked to check source files, the linenumber was off by +3 in
the gcc format output.

Hmmm, dunno how this one ever was visible?  Some error on my part.  That
line now shows $filename rather than ARGV.  

I see you have different line numbers depending on whether this is a
file or diff.  Would you ever pass in a plain diff in emacs mode, and
what would the line number mean.

Here is the message in my compile window as it is displayed by -next:

ARGV:148: ERROR: need a space before the open parenthesis '('
#148: FILE: home/mdday/src/slp-devel/src/cmd-utils/lslp-linux.c:145:
+  if(dieNow)

The filename is reported as ARGV and the line number is reported as
148. These should be FILE: #line:FILE: \basename\filename:line: 

Also, the line number is reported differently. The correct line number
is reported at the end of the second line.

I tested these patches with both sources and patches, from bash and from emacs and they seem to work ok.
