I just byte-compiled them all. Or maybe I just edited the one file
and byte-compiled it. Perhaps that's the problem?

There were other stuff, but I move them all out of the way. Some of
them may have been put there using the package manager. I don't
really remember.

I'll have to look. My .emacs/.xemacs probably has stuff going back
that far. :-)
Yep. I have some (push <somepath> load-path) for oo-browser. Haven't
used that in ages. And some other stuff.

Nope.

Yeah, I should look into this more, but leaving off -vanilla works
pretty well, so motivation is low.

Ok. I should have done that to begin with, but I wanted ask about
this first.
