Probably, this is somehow the case... I think the directory structure that you can see is the default one of ELPA - I don't think I tweaked it.

The file "~/.emacs.d/elpa/org-plus-contrib-20130930/org.el" contains the definition of the variable "org-bookmark-names-plist"

I didn't know how to recompile the files, and what exactly do you mean by cleaning the .elc's; so I did something else. I removed the old directories of org-mode from the ELPA directory, restarted emacs and it now seems to work fine.
