recompile should give a summary that warns you if a file failed to
compile.  However, it doesn't try to compile an .el file that doesn't
have a corresponding .elc file.  I removed the "no-byte-compile: t"
from generic-x.el one month ago.  If you haven't done a bootstrap
since, that would explain why you haven't seen any error message from
recompile.

Maybe you can post your problem here so that others can help you.
