severity 391778 important thanks Hmm, this error doesn't appear on my system. I removed *xemacs* packages and re-installed xemacs21-mule 21.4.19-1, and then byte-compilation of apel is fine. I re-installed apel 10.6+0.20060424-1, it's also fine. For now, I've downgraded the severity of this bug.

The message is displayed by XEmacs' startup.el, not by apel. Also, The function `batch-byte-compile' should be available on XEmacs even if options -q and -no-site-file are used. So, the error is strange. Could you investigate this problem minutely on your system? -- Tatsuya Kinoshita
