In mumamo.el I am building functions for fontification. I compile them
like this:

        (setq byte-compiled-fun (let ((major-syntax-table))
                                  (byte-compile fetch-func-definition)))

Previously it returned the byte-compiled function, but now it seems to
return t. (Or, at least it did not when I tested.)

I am using an anonymous function, but I think I can switch to a named
temporary function instead. I will try that.
