Re: Invalid Byte-code Object with commit f0b0105d91

[Paul Eggert]

Thanks for reporting the problem. Unfortunately I can't reproduce it 
with your recipe. I used a fresh HOME directory, as follows. Does this 
work for you? If not, could you isolate the problem to a particular .elc 
file that Emacs has trouble loading? Also, have you configured the 
variables byte-compile-dynamic-docstrings and/or byte-compile-dynamic?

$ mkdir /tmp/home
$ cat >/tmp/home/.emacs <<'EOF'
(setq byte-compile-dynamic t)
(require 'package)
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.org/packages/";) t)

(unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)
  (package-refresh-contents)
  (package-install 'use-package))
EOF
$ HOME=/tmp/home src/emacs

Here is what was in my *Messages* buffer afterwards:
