Hi,
When upgrading from one GNU ELPA package to the next (in my case, from
ELPA version org-20130318 to org-20130325), `load-path' is not refreshed
by installing the new package, which means that `org-reload' does not
work without manually fixing `load-path' and evaluating (load "org"). I
would expect the ELPA package to fix the load path automatically and
maybe even run `org-reload' immediately after compilation.
I was scared I might have to kill all my nice emacs-uptime because of
this :)
Org-mode version 7.9.4 (7.9.4-elpa @
/home/grml/.emacs.d/elpa/org-20130325/)
GNU Emacs 24.2.1 (i486-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.4.2) of 2013-01-22
on biber, modified by Debian
Best,
Will

Yes -- this is known limitation of the package installation mechanism.
Here are the ELPA installation instructions in the manual:
Recent Emacs distributions include a packaging system which
lets you install Elisp libraries. You can install Org with
M-x package-install RET org. You need to do this in a session
where no .org file has been visited.
The last sentence is the one important here.
HTH,
