Perhaps I have mixed the error messages from my different tries ? Not
sure.

Anyway, the error I reported is because wisi-compat did not exist in my
tree (sorry I did not state that clearly). My HEAD was at 0c8e3a1. I
updated my tree and the file now exists so I guess the error has
disappeared. I just tried : indeed, I don't have the error anymore (my
HEAD is 1905244ada36189d940fdf7e40d3498ae8917fed). I'm thus closing this
bug.

The upgrade fixed the problem for me. Thanks.

I don't, and I have a local patch so that ~/.emacs.d/elpa is not used
(see bug#17291) so it should not have interfered.

IIUC, it does not necessarily byte-compile wisi first, but since the
build process invokes (package-initialize), wisi should still be
available (uncompiled) at the moment ada-mode is byte-compiled.
