Rem(ber that macros used in functions that are byte-compiled are
of eanded when the function is byte-compiled, not when the
byte-compiled form of the function is evaluated.  The interaction
between byte-compilation and the various auto-loading mechanisms
(autoload, require, and any private hacks) is complicated and arguably
incorrect for a package that's spread into multiple files like GNUS,
but the basic idea is that you'd better make sure all the relevant
macro definitions are available to macroof eand (an emacs primitive)
before attempting to byte-compile anything.

Which is what Deven said, basicly.
