Put this in a new file foobar.el:

(defvar text-scale-mode-amount) ; Quiet byte-compiler < Emacs 23

Byte-compile foobar.el using Emacs 20 or 21.

emacs -Q  ; Emacs 23

M-x load-library face-remap
M-x load-file foobar.elc
C-h v text-scale-mode-amount

You'll see this:

,----
| text-scale-mode-amount is a variable defined in `foobar.el'.
| Its value is 0
| 
|   Automatically becomes buffer-local when set in any fashion.
| 
| Documentation:
| Not documented as a variable.
