Is it worthwhile explaining for the benefit of the less well

the placement of `(require 'bbdb)'?
The problem is that you can have a require loop if there is a cyclic
dependency, and you do your requires before your provides.
Under the present scheme is `(require 'bbdb)' advisable at
all?
There is nothing wrong with you doing that.
