The custom-set-faces form written out is incomplete (because of issue 1 above): (custom-set-faces '(default ((t (:family "Courier New"))) t) '(bbdb-company ((t (:bold t :foreground "brown"))) t) '(bold ((t (:bold t))) t) '(bold-italic ((t (:bold t :italic t))) t) '(comint-input-face ((t (:bold t)))) '(custom-invalid-face ((t (:foreground "yellow" :background "red")))) '(cvs-handled-face ((((class color) (background light)) (:foreground "DarkOrchid" :bold t)))) '(cvs-marked-face ((((class color) (background light)) (:foreground "red" :bold t)))) '(cvs-unknown-face ((((class color) (background light)) (:foreground "ForestGreen" :bold t)))) It's location in the file is preserved now, so that fix seems to work.
