byte-compiling an elisp-file fails in Emacs 22.1 (reproducable)

[klaus.berndl]

Hi all,

1. using Emacs 22.1 for MS Windows.

2. starting Emacs with
     runemacs --quick
   so no private setup-stuff is loaded - just a plain and fresh Emacs

3. Opening my .emacs with C-x C-f

4. calling "Byte-compile This File" from the menu "Emacs-lisp"

   Get the error "Symbol's function definition is void: 
compilation-forget-errors"


When activating "Enter debugger on error" vefore step 4, i get the following 
backtrace:

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-function compilation-forget-errors)
  compilation-forget-errors()
  byte-compile-log-file()
  byte-compile-from-buffer(#<buffer  *Compiler Input*> "c:/home/.emacs")
  byte-compile-file("c:/home/.emacs")
  emacs-lisp-byte-compile()
  call-interactively(emacs-lisp-byte-compile)

Even explicitly loading compile.el (which defines this function) before 
byte-compiling
doesn't fix it....

Is this a known bug? 

Anyway it's an anoying bug which makes the new Emacs 22 quite unuseable for me
because i do a lot of elisp-programming and byte-compiling....

Is there a known work-around for that problem?

Thanks in advance!

Klaus
