Doing (require 'generic-x) shouldn't load generic unless generic-x is
loaded from source. Any idea why your lisp/generic-x.el isn't
compiled?
The error suggests that an old version of generic is used (from before
define-generic-mode became a macro, one month ago). Do you have
lisp/emacs-lisp/generic.el, revision 1.1? Is your
lisp/emacs-lisp/generic.elc up to date? Is an old lisp/generic.el{,c}
shadowing lisp/emacs-lisp/generic.el{,c}?
Can you reproduce your problem when you (do a make bootstrap and)
start Emacs with "emacs -Q" and do (require 'generic-x) manually?
Lute.
