Below update is after I updated to the latest org master:

I wasn't even doing that. I was doing M-x byte-compile-file and selecting
org.el.
That gives me (without applying your patch):
Compiling file

I get that too.

No, I didn't.. your bound-and-true-p patch makes more sense.
So.. should we consider the warnings output by simple byte-compile-file?
Even if not, the warnings do not make sense.. just taking this example:
In org-goto-map:
org.el:7412:9:Warning: function org-goto-map used to take 0+ arguments, now
takes 0
Nowhere is org-goto-map defined to take 0+ arguments (meaning have
"&optional arg" as signature) and then redefined to have 0 arguments (which
is the actual case). Wondering why the compiler thinks that. I had a quick
look at byte-compile-arglist-warn function that outputs this warning.. but
couldn't understand the logic for sig1 in there.
