Your error format "%f:%l:%c:%t:%m" will not match your example error output:

/local/work/dept/user/repo.git/src/fd_set/src/fd_set.c:151: error: 'struct fd_group' has no member named 'fg_maxfd'

because there is no column number (%c) and because the %t item only matches a single character, not the full word "error", and because there are spaces in your error message not accounted for in your errorformat.

I'm not actually sure how Vim is recognizing it as an error in the first place, if it is at all, unless your errorformat is not what you think it is.

What does the ccfilter command in your shellpipe do? Maybe that is modifying the compiler output as seen on the command line?
