Hmm, maybe we should byte-compile elisp files by default when they are
tangled out of org-babel documents.  Although I can't think of any off
the top of my head I image there are going to be cases when it would not
be appropriate to byte-compile tangled elisp files.

I'll add this feature as a task in our development list.

Hmm, I feel like this would require too much code in org-babel for too
limited a set of functionality.  Maybe there is a more general feature
lying behind this request that would be more widely applicable?

Thanks for the suggestions -- Eric
