I see Glenn has already reverted the problematic commit [78125f3744], thanks Glenn! I'm sorry I didn't try to build myself before suggesting the change. [78125f3744]: 2018-07-11 08:27:14 -0700 Unbreak bootstrap https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/?id=78125f37444acd4f1ec4a0a5b0a338d80672f2ec Something about (declare (compiler-macro (lambda (_) `(= 0 ,number)))) requires both cadr and cddr, and it's not the backquote. My first thought is that it relates to the compiler-macro and its expansion by macroexp.el; can anyone confirm this or correct me? Would adding a comment along the following lines be welcome?
