Indeed, thank you.  I've installed the patch below which should fix it.

Subject: 23.2; advice.el unbinding warning-suppress-types
Date: Tue, 08 Jun 2010 08:54:22 +1000

If advice.el byte-compiles a piece of advice which causes byte compiler
warnings, then it unbinds `warning-suppress-types'.  For example

    (defun foo ()
      (message "hi"))
    (defadvice foo (after my-advice activate compile)
      (car))
    (display-warning 'bar "some thing")
    =>
    Error void-variable warning-suppress-types

It seems ad-compile-function does a let bind of warning-suppress-types
without ensuring warnings.el has been loaded.
