    We've (the MH-E team) developed mh-defun-compat (and mh-defmacro-compat)
    to provide either an alias or a definition to a function depending on
    the availability of the function. I've also created functions like
    mh-defcustom to strip :package-version from the option definition on
    systems that do not support it.

    The problem is that if perform describe-function or describe-variable on
    the functions and variables that these functions define, and then click
    on the file in which they are defined, you get an error:

If you rename your macro to defun-mh-compat, does that fix the problem?
