The commands for the file lispusers/TRANSOR include a command (EDITHIST TRANSOR), but EDITHIST is not defined as a FILEPKGCOM anywhere I can find.

Does anybody know where that might be?

Is this defining it?

medley/lispusers/COMMON-MAKE:        ((FILEPKGCOMS I.S.OPRS TEMPLATES BLOCKS EXPORT EDITHIST)

It's mentioned there, but it's hard to see what's supposed to happen.

The function COMMON-MAKEFILE seems to match on those commands...so that it can ignore them.  I tried (COMMON-MAKEFILE  'TRANSOR) and it give a help saying that LAMBDA and NLAMBDA are unsupported.

(MAKEFILE 'TRANSOR) says that EDITHIST is not defined as a FILEPKGCOM (presumably because it isn't being ignored).

If we can't find an actual definition somewhere (it may be a nice feature), then I'll remove the EDITHIST command from TRANSOR and try to make it in the standard way.  It's the last file to be remade in order to eliminate the 247's in the DEFINE-FILE-INFO's.
