Trying to debug a bug in compile-goto-error on Rmail files,
I typed C-h f compilation--message->loc RET
then clicked on the file name -- which is supposed to find the definition
of that function.

It did not find the definition; instead it said,

    Unable to find location in file

I also tried M-x find-function RET compilation--message->loc RET.
It found a call to compilation--message->loc, not the definition.

I searched for that name in the file and did not find a definition.
I will try grepping for it.
