Thank you for responding.
Yes, make bootstrap, did that already a couple of times, but I keep running into the same error. What is odd is
that the byte-compile (see fragment in my post) of ox.el gives the line number, when manually trying to
byte-compile org-element.el (the offender) I get no line number at all. Hmm.
Will keep trying to figure out what is wrong here. I wonder where the tramp stuff enters.

While wondering if this is the place to bring my issue, allow me to state it nevertheless.
I was trying to compile emacs-29 from sources. However the build fails, and chokes on byte-compiling
lisp/org/ox.el:
...

I think this can be traced back to byte-compiling lisp/org/org-element.el; when I try to byte-compile that
manually I do indeed get the error about Eager macro-expansion failure, but I am unsure what actually causes
this failure.
Comments?
I cannot reproduce that. Suggest "make bootstrap".
