It's probably not hard to arrange to give a compiler warning for use
of `kbd' in a file that's preloaded.  There could be a file local
variable to enable the warning, and a compilation property to
give the warning.

This might save enough trouble in false starts
to be worth the trouble of implementing this.

Or perhaps we should preload `kbd' so it can be used everywhere.
