CEDET error on every file: Idle Parse Error: "#<buffer XYZ> - Wrong number of arguments

I am trying to use CEDET (checkout from bzr) with emacs 24.2, but every time I try to open a buffer, including my .emacs file, I get the error:

Idle Parse Error: "#<buffer .emacs> - Wrong number of arguments: #[(old new when) \"\\303    \\304#\\210\\303\\305#\\210\\303\\306\\307#\\210\\303\\310#\\207\" 
[old new when put overload-obsoleted-by overload-obsoleted-since mode-local-overload t overload-obsolete] 4 (\"/home/sebas/.emacs.d/cedet/lisp/cedet/mode-local.elc\" . 14156)], 2"

And if I run semantic-debug-idle-function it returns nothing (or I don't know how to use it). How else could I debug this? The configuration file is practically the same as from Alex Ott, the only "idle" mode in semantic-default-submodes is 'global-semantic-idle-scheduler-mode.

I would really like to use CEDET, as I remember it was quite awesome. Thanks for any help.

You have some old macros from mode-local lying around. Please make sure that

  • you have CEDET properly compiled, that means you did run 'make' and it finished succesfully

  • you don't also have CEDET installed through your system's package manager

  • you are loading CEDET right at the beginning of your init file

If all of this does not help, please post your problem to the CEDET-devel mailing list, together with the init file you are using.
