Here's a similar looking case from me.

ERROR: no such language tree-il

This happened during investigation of the
no-meta-in-compiled-define-syntax-thunk problem.  I wondered if the
problem would persist if I could persuade psyntax to emit scheme instead
of tree-il when compiling - the hypothesis being that the bug is
somewhere in one of the `(case (fluid-ref *mode*) ((c) ...' fragments of
code in psyntax.scm.

So in language/scheme/compile-tree-il.scm I changed (sc-expand x 'c ...)
to (sc-expand x 'd ...), and since then have been stuck with "no such
language tree-il".
