Emacs has org integrated, which is good for casual users, and for org of course, but creates some headaches if you want to stay on the bleeding edge of development. I also did what you have done, in my case, on OSX, cd'ed into Emacs.app and removed org manually, then it started loading my version of org. The details should be in a previous post of mine in this list. Marcelo.
