I don't think this is a new bug, but you seem to have claimed to have
fixed it in the notes from the most recent packs rebuild, and it just
bit me.

when trying to check out a file:
Symbol's function definition is void: vc-user-login-name

vc-user-login-name is defined in vc-hooks so I try to load it manually
Loading vc-hooks (compiled; note, source file is newer)...done

  -rw-r--r--   1 root     root       49158 Apr  6 17:07 vc-hooks.el
  -rw-r--r--   1 root     root       18667 May  8  1998 vc-hooks.elc


Explicitly loading the non-compiled version seems to make it work
happily.  So it looks like you just need to recompile this file, but
how it ended up this way I'm kinda curious.
