Node `Compiler Errors' seems to be the only place in the Elisp manual
where we tell users that you can use a vacuous `defvar' (no value) to
suppress a byte-compiler warning about it not being defined.

But this node has no index entry - at least none that has the word
`defvar' in it.  Please add such an entry.

And please either add the same info (about this use of a vacuous
`defvar') to node `Defining Variables' or add a cross-reference from
that node to node `Compiler Errors'.

As it is now, it is not so easy to find this info.
