I have seen this in Emacs, but have never used Xemacs. So this is a guess.
What is going on here is that gcc is emitting the control
characters. Konsole is handling them correctly, but the Emacs "terminal"
is not. You should turn off the fancy output stuff (bold, colors, etc) in
gcc when you run it under emacs.
