I modified local.mk to use emacs23 and set

ORG_ADD_CONTRIB = org-export org-e-*

I then did ``make compile'' - I get the following errors/warning:

I looked at the first one only:

Not sure why emacs24 does not complain but org-e-publish contains this bit of
code:
,----
|         ...
| 	(org-export-async-start 'ignore
| 	  `(let ((org-e-publish-use-timestamps-flag
| 		  (if ',force nil ,org-e-publish-use-timestamps-flag)))
| 	     (org-e-publish-projects ',project-alist)))
|         ...
`----

and org-export-async-start in contrib/lisp/org-export.el says:

,----
| (defmacro org-export-async-start  (fun &rest body)
|   "Call function FUN on the results returned by BODY evaluation.
|   ...
`----

so there does seem to be a mismatch.

HTH,
