I don't see this explained anywhere. I haven't checked the latest CVS info files for the Elisp manual, but I have checked the latest compile.el source code and see no explanation there. Shouldn't the usage be documented somewhere? Clearly, a user would generally not use both of these. Is one of them intended to be deprecated? If not, shouldn't the order of execution (first `function', then `functions') be advertised?
