defface not defining a face?

[lee]

Hi,

what´s wrong with


[...]
(defgroup lsl-faces nil
  "Faces for lsl-mode."
  :group 'lsl-faces
  :group 'faces)


(defface lsl-global-variable
  '((((background dark)) (:background "pink" :foreground "black"))
    (t (:background "pink")))
  "Face to highlight global variables"
  :group 'lsl-faces)


(defun lsl-hi-lock-global-variable ()
  "add a hi-lock-mode pattern to highlight something that is a
global variable"
  (interactive)
  (lsl-hi-lock-add lsl-global-variable))
[...]


That gives me "reference to free variable `lsl-global-variable'" when
byte-compiling, and "lsl-hi-lock-global-variable: Symbol's value as
variable is void: lsl-global-variable" when calling
(lsl-hi-lock-global-variable).

Apparently the face is not defined.  How come?

See https://github.com/Ratany/lsl-repo/tree/master/emacs --- I´m trying
to add some face definitions.
