Tamas,

I would suggest using the git version of org. I know this doesn't 
address the problem directly, but it's a good workaround:)

I put all my org mode stuff in a .emacs-lisp folder in my home 
directory. In my .emacs I have:

(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs-lisp/org")

In my org makefile I have:

# Where local software is found
prefix=~/.emacs-lisp

# Where local lisp files go.
lispdir = $(prefix)/org

# Where info files go.
infodir = $(prefix)/share/info

There is a tutorial in Worg on how to set up git to keep your Makefile 
customizations between different versions of org. Of course I can't find 
the link to it at the moment, when I need it:)

Ian.
