I encountered a strange byte compile error with simple elisp code.

[How to reproduce]
1. Save the following file as /tmp/foo.el:
--- /tmp/foo.el ----------------------------
(defun xyz (arg)
  (cond
;   ((member '("image") arg) ; OK
;   ((member '(rel "image") arg) ; OK
;   ((remove '(rel . "image") arg) ; OK
;   ((memq '(rel . "image") arg) ; NG
   ((member '(rel . "image") arg) ; NG
    1)))
--------------------------------------------
2. emacs-27.1 -Q
3. M-x byte-compile-file /tmp/foo.el RET
4. Then byte compile fails with the following error:
Compiling file /tmp/foo.el at Wed Aug 19 03:38:06 2020
Entering directory ‘/tmp/’
foo.el:1:13:Error: Wrong type argument: listp, "image"
in *Compile-Log* buffer. I don't see foo.elc in /tmp after that.
Expected result is that byte compile finishes without error and foo.elc
is generated.

[Additional info]
a. As written in the above code, only cons (rel . "image") causes this
   error. Both lists (rel "image") and ("image") are OK.
b. As written in the above code, both `member' and `memq' fail while
   `remove' succeeds.
c. Emacs 26.3 works as expected.

Ikumi Keita
