You could also try a full "make bootstrap".

I did not confirm but I thought that should have happened because I did rebuild emacs with `make bootstrap`.

There was no option because before `make bootstrap`, I got:

Loading emacs-lisp/timer...
Loading isearch...
Attempt to autoload cl-old-struct-compat-mode while preparing to dump
make[1]: *** [emacs] Error 255
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/kmodi/downloads/git/emacs/src'
make: *** [src] Error 2

Could you please tell me the exact steps you did to get the error?
I'd like to try to reproduce it myself.

- Install paradox from GNU Elpa

- (paradox-enable)

- M-x list-packages (This will now open the default package manager, but with additions made by paradox).

- Install any package ( i x ), and then hit 'y' when asked if you want to do that asynchronously. 

- You will then see the error I mentioned in my first email of this thread. 

I will open a bug report for this today so that all this info can be contained in there.
