In article <TALE.89Apr10220603@imagine.pawl.rpi.edu> I said:

Please don't flood me with replies (I think I'll never forgot when I
got 87 replies about "Emack's and Bolio's" and ITS). I found out my
answer a few minutes later when I went into the lisp directory looking
for something else. Staring me right in the face were grow-vers.el,
inc-vers.el and version.el. I tweaked the level back down to 1 before
a rebuild and everything was peachy.
Actually, what I was looking for was a clue as to where to put the
autoloads and such that I wanted for my site; I had them in
site-init.el (where ${EMACS}/INSTALL said to put any code that was to
be loaded into the dumped Emacs) and they didn't take. Perusing the
code to loadup.el I finally found my answer (that it should have been
in site-load). Perhaps the mention of site-init.el in INSTALL should
be a little more clear on what should go into site-init?
