Thanks. Let's see if this gets there.

Yeah, I figured that would have been helpful, but I actually did this
last week at work, and now I'm at home. Furthermore, the work machine
has required a reboot several times, so the console listing of files
I found with that `grep` are gone. HOWEVER, it occurs to me that no
other .elc files on my system will have been byte-compiled this
month. So, one `find` command later, I discover that all the
offending files were in
/usr/local/share/emacs/24.3/site-lisp/nxml-mode-20041004/. (I simply
byte-compiled all .el files in that directory, so I don't know which
ones were the offenders.)

Next question, of course, is how did nxml-mode get there. The command
`dpkg --list | egrep nxml` returns no results, so I suspect I just
copied it there by hand from an earlier system, and failed to
re-byte-compile (i.e., did not run `make`).
