I can confirm that this issue is still present in Emacs 29.

To reproduce, save the file, byte-compile it and say

M-: (foo-fails)

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (invalid-function old-mac)
  old-mac()
  foo-fails()
  eval-expression((foo-fails) nil nil 127)
  funcall-interactively(eval-expression (foo-fails) nil nil 127)
  command-execute(eval-expression)

Perhaps Stefan M has some comments; added to the CCs.

More information was requested, but none was given within 6 months, so
I'm closing this bug.

If this is still an issue, please reply to this email (use "Reply to
all" in your email client) and we can reopen the bug report.

[...]

-----

(defvar foo-var 0)

(defmacro foo-mac ()
  '(setq foo-var (1+ foo-var)))

(define-obsolete-function-alias 'old-mac #'foo-mac "24.4")

(defun foo-fails ()
  (old-mac))

(defun foo-works ()
  (foo-mac))


Compile:
foo.el:13:4:Warning: the function `foo-mac' is not known to be defined.

Load compiled version:
(foo-fails) ; -> (invalid-function old-mac)


Also, neither version warns that old-mac is obsolete.

I see now that

(eval-and-compile
  (define-obsolete-function-alias 'old-mac #'foo-mac "24.4"))

works. So maybe that should happen automatically at top-level.


[...]

Fixed the obsolescence warning in 5e6fb1e (auto eval-and-compile make-obsol=
ete.
The invalid function issue remains (still need to manaully eval
top-level aliases to macros at compile-time).

-----

Then I compile it in Emacs 27, I get:

Compiling file /tmp/c.el at Mon Oct  7 17:45:55 2019

In foo-fails:
c.el:9:4:Warning: =E2=80=98old-mac=E2=80=99 is an obsolete function (as of =
24.4); use
    =E2=80=98foo-mac=E2=80=99 instead.

Which seems correct.

If I then

(load "/tmp/c.elc")

I don't get anything about invalid functions.  So has this been fixed,
or am I misinterpreting what the invalid function issue is?

Fixed the obsolescence warning in 5e6fb1e (auto eval-and-compile make-obsolete.
The invalid function issue remains (still need to manaully eval
top-level aliases to macros at compile-time).

Package: emacs
Version: 24.3
Severity: minor

[ From http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2013-09/msg00354.html ]

(defvar foo-var 0)

(defmacro foo-mac ()
  '(setq foo-var (1+ foo-var)))

(define-obsolete-function-alias 'old-mac #'foo-mac "24.4")

(defun foo-fails ()
  (old-mac))

(defun foo-works ()
  (foo-mac))


Compile:
foo.el:13:4:Warning: the function `foo-mac' is not known to be defined.

Load compiled version:
(foo-fails) ; -> (invalid-function old-mac)


Also, neither version warns that old-mac is obsolete.

I see now that

(eval-and-compile
  (define-obsolete-function-alias 'old-mac #'foo-mac "24.4"))

works. So maybe that should happen automatically at top-level.
