jka-compr-build-file-regexp should be preloaded now, in jka-cmpr.el.
Please try recompiling the Lisp files and rebuilding Emacs
and see if the problem goes away.

Can you run this under GDB with a breakpoint at Fsignal?
Then do backtrace and xbacktrace, and the info will probably
enable me or someone to fix the bug.

Rhinoceros has poor vision, but, due to his size, it's not his problem.

I can't understand the cause of this bug.
The backtrace appears to be garbled.
Others seem to have no problem loading jka-cmpr-hook.el,
so we can't debug why it fails for you.  I think you may
have to debug it by adding calls to `message' in that code.
