🚀 go-pugleaf

I'm trying to rebuild epoch-4.2 so that it automatically starts with
the excellent packages tek-man and tek-highlight loaded (I'd also like
to add e few other things). However, I get the following error: 

Loading site-init...
Loading epoch.el...
Symbol's function definition is void: functionp

My site-init.el looks like
 
(load "epoch.el")
;;;%%%Autoloads
; Set up an autoload for syntax decoding stuff.
(autoload 'decode-syntax-table "syntax-decode" "autoloadable function" t)
; Customise the mouse drag style.
(require 'tek-motion-highlight-setup)

If I remove everything but the first line it works, which is strange,
considering that epoch.el also uses functionp.


I have noticed before that I can put some things in site-init.el, but
that other things makes it impossible to build Epoch. Hitherto I have
ignored the problem, and confined myself to the things that do work.
But since the tek-highlight and tek-man stuff takes so long to load,
it really would be nice to be able to have them in the core.

Please help me before I have to resort to RTFM.
