Hi Andrea,

> yes but in org-refile.el there are no requires at all :O

That looks strange for me too. Though org-mode somehow manages to
be compiled with normal byte-compilation...

I suspect that it relies on compiling org.el first with
(eval-and-compile (require 'org-macs)) forcing Emacs to have all the
macros defined there to be available (dynamically) during compilation of
all other org-mode source files.

I have reported this as a bug to org-mode mail-list [1]. Lets see what they
say.

On the native-compile branch side, it would probably be a good idea to
throw an error in similar scenarios instead of generating erroneous .eln
file.

Best,
Ihor
