Reinstalling compat fixed everything breaking

[William Denton]

Yesterday I pulled the current source trees for Org and Emacs and compiled as I 
usually do ... and everything broke, with Org complaining about mixed versions, 
and all kinds of warnings and backtraces and "Invalid function: 
compat-declare-version" errors.

After looking at various things I noticed a couple of mild warnings related to 
the package compat, which I'd seen for a while (several weeks, at least) but 
never bothered about, because everything worked.  I thought maybe it was all 
connected, what with the new version-checking and such, and indeed "M-x 
package-reinstall compat" did the trick and now everything works.

In case someone else has the same problem I thought I'd mention this.

Cheers,

Bill
