Compilation error: Autoloading failed to define function

Compilation error: Autoloading failed to define function

[Hatta]

Hello,

I got this error while compiling Emacs-24 on Ubuntu

$ uname -a
Linux rocinante 3.0.0-12-generic #20-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 7 14:56:25 UTC
2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux (it's a Mint 12 distribution)

I did a simple

$ ./configure

Then

$ make

...
Wrote /home/sav/repos/emacs/lisp/vc/pcvs.elc
Compiling calendar/calendar.el
Source file `/home/sav/repos/emacs/lisp/calendar/calendar.el' newer

Source file `/home/sav/repos/emacs/lisp/emacs-lisp/gv.el' newer than
byte-compiled file

In toplevel form:
emacs-lisp/cl-extra.el:522:1:Error: Autoloading failed to define
function gv--defun-declaration
make[2]: *** [emacs-lisp/cl-extra.elc] Error 1

make[1]: *** [compile-main] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/sav/repos/emacs/lisp'
make: *** [lisp] Error 2

This error doesn't look like a dependency problem,,, maybe it's broken
for some specific tool being used? Any help is appreciated :) I'm lost
here...

Thanks in advance.
