Is it OK to get rid of the strange support for byte-compiling for older
Emacsen in bytecomp.el ?
I have never heard of anyone using this facility and it does not really
work anyway since it will still use the current definition of macros which
will tend to use newer facilities and thus generate code that does not run
on older versions.
I don't intend to actively remove the code, but just that whenever it gets
in the way or needs fixing, we could just remove the relevant part instead.
Stefan
