Great, that works as well. You bypass the autoload mechanism
with that -- org gets loaded unconditionally. But since you
will use it anyway, it doesn't make that big of a difference.

Perhaps someone more knowledgeable than me can teach us how one
might add an externally installed package into the autoload
machinery.
