bug#19894: 25.0.50; void-function eieio-constructor

Hi,

I built emacs from git (commit
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/?id=81d89d88aef5de720e7fbeecbfb295d6eaf6fd37
) and it runs fine except that it broke compatibility with a 3rd party
package on Melpa called gist ( https://github.com/defunkt/gist.el ).

I grepped for "eieio-constructor" in the package install directory but I
found nothing.

So probably some internal call to that ex-function is causing this error.

I get this on enabling `debug-on-error':

[Stefan Monnier]

Do a "make bootstrap".  If that's not enough, grep for
"eieio-constructor" in your *.elc files (yes: el*C*) and recompile those.

Thank you!

I found the eieio-constructor references in the .elc files.
I deleted the packages containing those references and reinstalled using
the package manager.
That fixed this problem.

Packages reinstalled: gh, pcache, marshal, logito
