Found a solution to the problem. This has to do with order of setting the
custom-file and loading it (needs to be done *after* the org-install).
I.e., the order in init.el needs to be:
...
(require 'org-install)
(setq org-default-notes-file "~/test.org")
(define-key global-map "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)
(define-key global-map "\C-cc" 'org-capture)
...
;; Needs to be done after org-mode is loaded
(setq custom-file (concat my-customizations-dir "emacs-custom.el"))
(load custom-file)
This allows the `org-capture-templates' saved in the separate emacs-custom.el
file to be correctly loaded. Note that this behavior is from 7.02/7.3, and
probably has to do with the custom-autoload definition of this variable in
org-install.el.
Hope this explanation helps.
