Dear Bug Team!
I have the elisp variable inhibit-site-lisp set to the default,
nil, yet site-lisp is not added to load-path. I unpacked
ESS into c:\XEmacs\Packages\site-lisp and
c:\XEmacs\Packages\site-lisp\ess\lisp was not added to
load-path which I'm pasting here:

Hi Rodney,
That is strange. I don't have an ess package to test, but I took an
fsf-compat tarball and unpacked it to e:\XEmacs\site-packages and here
is the value of load-path when I restarted XEmacs:
`load-path' is a simple built-in variable.
Value: ("e:/acs/lib/lisp/xemacs" "e:/acs/lib/lisp"
"e:\\XEmacs\\site-packages\\lisp\\"
"e:\\XEmacs\\site-packages\\lisp\\fsf-compat\\"
"e:\\XEmacs\\xemacs-packages\\lisp\\"
"e:\\XEmacs\\xemacs-packages\\lisp\\c-support\\".....
1. I'm wondering if your ess package conforms to the standard package
format; if you cd to c:/XEmacs/site-packages, what does 'ls -R' print?
2. Does the behavior change at all if you start XEmacs with the -vanilla option?
HTH,
Vin
