I see the same if I start Emacs now, and the root cause is
(apropos-safe-documentation 'kill-current-buffer)
which again is because of this
(aref (symbol-function 'kill-current-buffer) 4)
=> ("simple.elc" . 202401)
Now, in my Emacs that's been running for a few hours, I instead get:
(aref (symbol-function 'kill-current-buffer) 4)
=> ("/home/larsi/src/emacs/trunk/lisp/simple.elc" . 202401)
And everything works.
I've tried to bisect this problem, but it's odd -- I can reproduce the
problem from "emacs -Q", but then if ... some things I don't quite
understand are done, then the problem goes away.
In any case, the simple.elc file contains:
(defalias 'kill-current-buffer ... (#$ . 202401) nil])
And #$ has apparently expanded to the unqualified version usually?
I think Stefan changed the format of byte compiled functions a while
ago? Or do I misremember? Anyway, added to the CCs.
