Thanks for the suggestion Nick, I've moved the macro definition up towards the top of ob.el, and for good measure I am now autoloading it. After this change I am able to call both ob-execute-subtree and ob-execute-buffer without error on the following simple Org-mode file
* top ** first #+begin_src emacs-lisp (+ 1 1 1 1 1) #+end_src ** second #+begin_src emacs-lisp (message "even more") #+end_src
Could you and/or Konrad let me know if this now works on your systems, and if not could you send me an example file that exercises the error?
