This bit at the end of whizzy-start-process looks suspicious:

    (save-excursion
      (set-buffer buf)
      (setq whizzy-status status)
      (setq comint-output-filter-functions
            (list (function whizzy-filter-output)))
      )

Perhaps that second setq should be replaced by

      (add-hook 'comint-output-filter-functions 'whizzy-filter-output t t)
