I'll let someone else answer your immediate question, but I do want to
point out that generating the `.eln` files as part of installation of
the package is a bad idea: the `.eln` files are not just specific to the
package but also to the Emacs for which it was compiled, so next time
you use another version of Emacs, they'll have to be recompiled anyway.
For this reason, the way native compilation is currently arranged, it
automatically native-compiles the files on-demand, and pre-compiling
them during installation of a package is more trouble than it's
worth, IMO.
Stefan
