Can't build semantic

I'll be submitting a patch shortly, but the question that needs to be discussed is -- can we stop this autoload abuse? Should we ask the [ir]responsible developers to find another mechanism that doesn't impose arbitrary code on our users? I'm trying to build the packages, and getting the attached traceback, after make distclean && make in the semantic directory. On thing that's happening is that eieio is monkey-patching the byte compiler to add an "eieio-" prefix to its names, but only in the compiled output. It seems to me that this is the worst of both worlds: eieio is grabbing "global" namespace, but it's thoroughly annoying to figure out what's going on because the names you're seeing in the traceback don't appear anywhere in the sources. What's worse is that an afterthought (Zappo himself calls it a "gloss") called "EDE" is now a prerequisite for the component library semantic, and it is autoloading 4 "defclasses" but no data for them. I can guess that what's happening is that there are facilities for customizing defclassed variables, and custom will barf if the defclasses aren't present. But is is really so awful to ask users who want this facility to put "(require 'ede-hooks)" in their init files?
