Likely related, I'm also noticing
 that code that compiles and run correctly against 25.1 and that used to
 compile and run error-free on Master just started breaking,
I'm still working on creating a small repro case.


But what I'm noticing:

With code compiled with lexical scoping,  defsubst forms appear to
behave differently when compiled vs evaled --- eval: no error, compile
and load == error.
