I haven't been able to find why this happens, but I have an idea for a
workaround: I'll put my export settings in another file (for instance
"export.org"). Then I'll have a special init file ("export-init.el")
that sets up the org path and loads that file.

I have two questions about how to make it work nice in the starter kit
context.

In export-init.el, should I do a (load-file "export.el") or is it better
to do a (org-babel-load-file "export.org")?

In my main configuration file, should I do a #+include "export.org", or
is it better to do a "org-babel-load-file"?

Thanks,

Alan
