No, End_of_file is a predefined exception. Actually, you must not define
it, the compiler does it for you.

Look into typing/predef.ml to see all the predefined types and values.
(In byterun/fail.h there is a second, independent source of predefined
exceptions.)

Just a hypothesis: You do not have a reference to End_of_file at all,
and it is expunged from the global table because of this. Later the
compiler tries to add the code for the predefined exceptions, and cannot
find End_of_file any longer. - This may be total nonsense, however.
