Re: byte compiling defcustom

[Richard Stallman]

    It seems clear that in terms of actual optimization,any gains would be
    neglegible and the main reason to compile would be to emit warnings.
    To me, no change seems necessary, but if the lack of warnings worries
    people, can the compiler not just warn about, say, obsolete variables
    and such without _changing_ anything about the code, leaving this up
    to the author or maintainer.

That is an interesting idea.
