I can't figure out how to find out what's causing those warnings.
I've been ignoring them for ages, to no noticeable ill effect, but
they're starting to annoy me ... any ideas for tracking down their
cause?

The *Compile-Log* buffer is where byte compiler warnings and error messages are displayed, so something in your .emacs (or other initialization files) is byte-compiling some code. Usually the culprit is a defadvice form that specifies the compile flag.

Those particular warnings mean there are 4 function calls in the code
being compiled that look like this:

(error "This doesn't contain any percent characters" arg-1)
