Odd behavior with first org file opened

Odd behavior with first org file opened

[Rafael]

Hi!

My Emacs version is 

GNU Emacs 23.2.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.21.6) of 2010-09-01
on rhenium, modified by Debian

(from Ubuntu 11.04)

and my org-version is recent:

Org-mode version 7.6 (release_7.6.146.g6b389.dirty)

If I run:

emacs -Q -L ~/Dropbox/emacs/site-lisp/org-mode/lisp/ 

(that's where I put org-mode),
and then open any org file (I have tried with a very simple one, with
only one heading), such file is not syntactically colored. However, if I
open any second org file, then it is colored without problem. Or if I
say M-x revert-file with the first.

If I test the same with emacs -Q, using the org-mode coming with Emacs,
then everything works fine.

Hopefully you can help me solve this! 

Best regards,
Rafael

I think you need to require org-install to initialize an external org
version.  So basically

  emacs -Q -L ~/Dropbox/emacs/site-lisp/org-mode/lisp/ \
        -e "(require 'org-install)"

should do the trick.
