ascii export problem/bug?

When I start emacs and then edit an org file, ascii export fails (M-x
org-export [return key] a).  No export file is created and I see the
following message:

    Autoloading failed to define function org-export-as-ascii

But if I type:

    M-x org-customize

then export works.  The other way I can get this to work is to manually load
org-ascii.el (which came with the org mode distribution).

This is with org-mode version 7.5.

Do you have org-install.el in your init file?

Thanks Jeff!  Of course, the missing install file was the problem.  I guess
org mode has evolved considerably since the last time I looked at the
manual...

Glad to help! Various bugs like that have bitten me. I gather if you
have to manually load libraries in any package, the "autoloads"
definitions probably aren't being used properly.
