Hi Gregor,

I'm not sure the sequence of events is clear to me, especially how the
the new org was loaded after it was compiled calling make.

Deferred compilation logic to date works as follow: if an elc is being
loaded, is lexical and the corresponding source is found, then an async
compilation is queued.  No file date is taken in account.

Is it possible that the old eln is still being loaded because
load-prefer-newer is nil?

Thanks for testing it, ciao!

Andrea
