Really great.  This works for me with Emacs 23.4.1 and it's org
version 6.33x, while not with the same Emacs and org-version
7.8.10 (release_7.8.10-529-gc4cad9).  I copied the version info
from the info file since org-version shows no
version any more.

My minimal .emacs for this test was:
(setq load-path (cons "~/src/org-mode/lisp" load-path)) 
(setq load-path (cons "~/src/org-mode/contrib/lisp" load-path)) 
(require 'org-install)
(org-reload)



Ciao, Gregor
