This is something I thought I had fixed for b9, and I cannot reproduce 
it here.  Can you reproduce the error if you first load efs-ovwrt.el
(not .elc) and then again efs-dired?

[Just a note to those technically interested or more qualified:

efs-ovwrt uses a macro ad-is-advised from advice.el.  Since
ad-is-advised is a macro, advice needs to be loaded at compile time of
efs-ovwrt.  Therefore, efs-ovwrt has this since b9/b104:

(eval-when-compile
  (condition-case nil
      (require 'advice)
    (error)))

Apparently, it doesn't do the right thing for Neal.

Let me re-iterate that advice sucks.
