I can't speak to this particular problem, but in general if you get
variable undefined or function undefined, some things to remember:

* At the _least_ always recompile your elisp files after updating, by
doing "make -C lisp recompile"

* Especially for undefined function errors, it may help to rebuild the
autoloads by doing (I think) "make -C lisp autoloads"

* If you're still having problems, you can do "make bootstrap" to
recompile everything from scratch (this one is very slow, so I don't
do it unless necessary).

As I am merging changes from the trunk (Emacs 22) into Emacs 23 on
roughly a weekly basis, it's possible for a bug from the trunk to slip
in, and a subsequent fix to be missed until the next update.  I will
gladly do an earlier update if asked, of course.
