I just updated to trunk revision 110349, and make bootstrap failed:

Is there anything I call look for in my source tree (which is made with
bzr pull --overwrite from my trunk mirror) that would cause
bootstrapping to fail?

Presumably bzr status show nothing odd?
Phase of the moon?
make maintainer-clean and try again?
semantic-displayor-tooltip-mode is defined at semantic/complete.el:1550
so it's hard to see how it can be void at line 1596.

I must admit I've seen the same problem, but it "somehow went away" and
I was unable to reproduce it afterwards. Maybe it was a maintainer-clean
that fixed it.

`semantic-displayor-tooltip-mode' is an autoloaded defcustom, used again
later in the same file as a default for a slot's init-value through
`symbol-value'. Maybe that's considered bad style, I'm not sure, but I
wouldn't know how to achieve this in a better manner.

Actually, it listed lots of *.moved files from an earlier bzr bisect.
Should they have been there?  Yet they didn't prevent previous
successful builds...

Interesting, and somehow reassuring.

I deleted the branch and branched again from trunk, and this time
bootstrapping worked.  Maybe it was just a phase of the moon.  Anyway,
there doesn't seem to be anything to pursue now, so I'm closing this
bug.

"bzr clean-tree --detritus" is your friend.  But be sure to run it
with --dry-run first, if you have there precious files that are not
versioned.

Thanks for the tip.
