Re: [Q] 'require during byte-compilation

`require', on the other hand, means that you require the presence

The "presumably" is actually the problem here...
Having to wrap each `require' in `eval-and-compile' would be
annoying for
me.
I understand this argument, but there are problems to solve here:
1/ AFAICS, XEmacs 21.1 doesn't behave this way. This introduces some backward
incompatibility, notably because some packages can compile properly under
XEmacs 21.1 but not under XEmacs 21.2
2/ I don't know of a standard way to do avoid evaluation of 'require at
compile time, and I need it.
3/ What does GNU Emacs do ? Are we compatible ?
