Re: Elpa packages and macro dependencies.

Indeed.  I think your situation could also be handled correctly by my
suggestion:

   E.g. we could add to bytecomp.el the ability to force `require' to
   reload a package if it's not already loaded from the file that
   locate-library returns.

Yes, that's what I'm resorting to now. I'm writing the package so that it reloads
itself before doing anything if `locate-library' returns a newer version.

It's a little annoying that it has to visit a file and check every time it's used,
but it only happens at byte-compile time, so it's not a huge deal.
