Well, it compiled from master but 29.0.5 so pre 29.1
the problem is that more recent emacs version cause sever problems with
my old bbdb package I using on a daily base (I wrote a lot of useful
add-ons that do not work on more recent bbdb version, mostly because of
renaming functions and changing syntax). For the next 2 month I will be
very busy with courses, so I can't effort to solve this and upgrade to a
more recent emacs version.

Point taken, but the compilation needs 10 minutes, 10! That makes
testing cumbersome, don't you agree?
