There's probably a simple solution, but if you don't find one:
You could make it display as a special-display buffer with its own display
function that either doesn't display it or displays it in an invisible frame or
something.
(add-to-list
'special-display-buffer-names
(list "*compilation*" 'my-display-fn))
(defun my-display-fn (buf &optional args)...)
