Subject: Some compilation woes
Date: Fri, 8 Jun 2012 15:19:27 +0200

Package: emacs
Version: 24.1.50


1) Bootstrapping now generates a few "lisp nesting exceeds
max-lisp-eval-depth" errors:

In toplevel form:
progmodes/make-mode.el:324:1:Error: Lisp nesting exceeds `max-lisp-eval-depth'

In toplevel form:
textmodes/rst.el:271:1:Error: Lisp nesting exceeds `max-lisp-eval-depth'

In toplevel form:
cedet/semantic/bovine/c-by.el:183:1:Error: Lisp nesting exceeds
`max-lisp-eval-depth'


2) Byte-compilation generates lots of new "function X might not be
defined at runtime". AFAICS, they are generated for functions used
before they are defined (with defun).

3) Byte-compilation seems quite fragile. After a successful bootstrap,
touch'ing every *.el in lisp/** and doing

  cd lisp
  make recompile

produces quite a few errors:

  Generating autoloads for ibuf-macs.el...
  Autoload cookie error in ibuf-macs.el:129 (wrong-type-argument integerp nil)
  Autoload cookie error in ibuf-macs.el:160 (wrong-type-argument integerp nil)
  Autoload cookie error in ibuf-macs.el:264 (wrong-type-argument integerp nil)
  Autoload cookie error in ibuf-macs.el:299 (wrong-type-argument integerp nil)
  Generating autoloads for ibuf-macs.el...done


  In toplevel form:
  textmodes/rst.el:120:1:Error: Invalid byte code in
c:/emacs/trunk/lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.elc
  Checking c:/emacs/trunk/lisp/url...
  Checking c:/emacs/trunk/lisp/vc...
  Compiling c:emacs/repo/lisp/vc/pcvs.el...
  Compiler-macro error: (error "Invalid byte code in

  Compiler-macro error: (error "Invalid byte code in

  etc
