+   Byte compilation writes errors and warnings into the buffer
+ @samp{*Compile-Log*}.  The messages include file names and line
+ numbers that identify the location of the problem.  The usual Emacs
+ commands for operating on compiler diagnostics work properly on
+ these messages.
+ 
+   However, the warnings about functions that were used but not
+ defined are always ``located'' at the end of the file, so these
+ commands won't find the places they are really used.  To do that,
+ you must search for the function names.
