(eval-when-compile (defvar foo))
You don't give it a value; you just declare it (to the compiler).

The first means the variable is used (referenced) somehow.
The second means that it is assigned to.
E.g., (setq foo bar) refers to variable `bar', and if it's free, then you get
the first warning. (setq bar 5) assigns `bar' a value, which will give you the
second warning (if `bar' is free).
