  Indeed it's a warning, sorry.

  The "error" (warning) I am referring to is the fact that
  ‘w32--os-description’ is being reference at all (and if/when
  referenced, the "w32-fns.el" file should have been or caused
  to beloaded).

  Is it because it's not necessary during the dump process?

  Thanks.
