Description

First of all, thanks for multi-term. I have been using it for many years now.

I just upgraded to Emacs 30, and I got the following compilation warnings. I mean, a Warnings buffer automatically comes up:

⛔ Warning (native-compiler): ~/.emacs.d/elpa/multi-term-20200514.428/multi-term.el:637:6: Warning: the function ‘with-parsed-tramp-file-name’ is not known to be defined.
⛔ Warning (native-compiler): ~/.emacs.d/elpa/multi-term-20200514.428/multi-term.el:636:15: Warning: the function ‘tramp-tramp-file-p’ is not known to be defined.
⛔ Warning (native-compiler): ~/.emacs.d/elpa/multi-term-20200514.428/multi-term.el:522:16: Warning: the function ‘ecb-activate’ is not known to be defined.
⛔ Warning (native-compiler): ~/.emacs.d/elpa/multi-term-20200514.428/multi-term.el:521:16: Warning: the function ‘ecb-deactivate’ is not known to be defined.

Research direction

Start with multi-term.el at lines 521-522 and 636-637, where Emacs 30 reports unknown functions. Reproduce the warnings by compiling the package with Emacs 30, then inspect how those functions are referenced. Done means the reported native-compilation warnings no longer appear.
