Found the problem.  Some of the old elisp files (for version 6.24) in my
"/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp/" were loaded before the versions in
"/Users/bcui/elisp/org-mode".

Here is a patch to Makefile to fix this (just switch the order of two
directories):

Please let me know if this is a good fix.

Thanks,
