I see. What I meant is that this is not a fundamental problem which
prevents using the linter later on. These numerous problems are of
course painful and tedious to fix, and maybe even prohibitive since time
is better invested elsewhere.

Still, the file stdlib-changes in package-lint can be a useful source if
you want to check the Emacs version when a symbol was added to Emacs or
removed from it.
