The same compiler error happens in emacs -Q if you compile a pcase
form that uses the map pattern and miss to require the map library,
e.g. compiling

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun test (plist)
  (pcase-let (((map :one (:two two)) plist))
    (list one two)))
#+end_src

gives you

| Error: Unknown map pattern: (map :one (:two two))

but it's expected.

Exactly.

But I still want to create a patch to support autoloading of the `map'
pattern in "map.el", this is a good idea.

Michael.
