This is clearly badly byte-compiled file (a function using the macro
`nnheader-temp-write' was compiled when the macro was not defined,
so the byte-compiled assumed it was a function).

Could you do (setq debug-on-error t), reproduce the error and post
the resulting backtrace, so we can see which function was badly
byte-compiled ?
