Ok, I see, and I confirm the compile error.  `undo-tree-make-node' is an
undo-tree-node constructor.  So it seems to be another problem with
Stefan's latest cl-defstruct changes.  I've added him to Cc.

undo-tree is here: http://www.dr-qubit.org/git/undo-tree.git

The definition of the constructor is this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defstruct
  (undo-tree-node
   (:type vector)   ; create unnamed struct
   (:constructor nil)
   (:constructor undo-tree-make-node
                 (previous undo
                  &optional redo
                  &aux
                  (timestamp (current-time))
                  (branch 0)))
   (:constructor undo-tree-make-node-backwards
                 (next-node undo
                  &optional redo
                  &aux
                  (next (list next-node))
                  (timestamp (current-time))
                  (branch 0)))
   (:copier nil))
  previous next undo redo timestamp branch meta-data)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

The error location (which looks strange to me) is this:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun undo-tree-register-data-p (data)  ;; <== HERE
  (and (vectorp data)
       (= (length data) 2)
       (undo-tree-node-p (undo-tree-register-data-node data))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
