Re: invalid function while using mm

I am using gnus to read my mail. It seems someone sent some sort of
image attachment. Click middle button, I am prompted in a dialog box
whether to display the image. I choose yes and get this:
Signaling: (invalid-function (macro . #<compiled-function (handle) "...(5)"
[handle nth 0] 3>))
mm-handle-buffer((#<buffer " *mm*<3>"> ("image/gif")
base64 nil nil nil nil "<_1_314C00000AAC0056AE9585256C17>"))
url-cid-gnus("_1_314C00000AAC0056AE9585256C17")
url-cid-gnus is in the W3 package, and W3 does not depend on Gnus, so
byte compiling url-cid-gnus generates code for calling a function but
it later turns out it is a macro. Boom.
The nasty solution:
