I use normal Emacs. But with a default installation of normal emacs the
site-lisp directory is indeed empty. I believe it is intended as a place to
put customizations. Therefore it makes perfect sense that there is nothing in
it on a default installation!

Not being able to byte-compile the directory is not fatal. Emacs can (and
will) run off of the .el files. Compiling them just makes emacs run faster.
However, before you give up on compiling, try loading them into an emacs
buffer and byte compiling the individual files one-by-one. Note that you are
quite likely to get some warnings when you do this. Just pretend you're a C
programmer and ignore them. :-)
