The problem also comes up when a separate file is used for storing
the `custom-set-variables', i.e., something like:

(setq custom-file  "~/emacs-custom.el")
(load custom-file)

Because of the autoload, these statements now need to be at the very
end of the init.el file.  Not a big problem, but still something
that needs to be known (and was not required prior to 7.02).
