There's a new `function-put' in trunk which gets used in place of `put'.
It appears extensively in loaddefs.el files.
This is going to mean that any package whose loaddefs.el file is
generated with Emacs >= 24.5 is potentially going to be unusable on
Emacs < 24.5. E.g. declaring an indent property in an autoloaded
function will cause it to happen.

Hmm... indeed for Emacs's lisp/loaddefs, this is not a problem, but for
other auto-generated autoloads file it can be annoying.
We should fix that before the next pretest.

It's only in trunk. Unless you mean to define function-put as a forward
compat alias in 24.4; but that doesn't help anyone using <= 24.3.

Oh, right, so it's OK the fix is not urgent.

Actually, that's a good idea in any case.

Well, I am working with a emacs from trunk and I had to inline the
definition of `function-put' to avoid having to generate the autoload file
from another emacs (24.3) which is inconvenient.
