I have other problems with custom.  It looks like `defcustom' doesn't
work when loaded from `.emacs'.

I have a `gnus-no-server' in my `.emacs', and it immediately starts
complaining.  Basically, the problem is that `defcustom' symbols aren't
being bound.  When I do a `load-library' on the appropriate file, things
work fine.

A case to point, I have `gnus-use-grouplens', which makes Gnus load
`gnus-gl', which requires `gnus-score', which uses `gnus-read-mark'.
This hiccups, since `gnus-read-mark' isn't bound.  I check the
`features', and, yes `gnus-sum' (where `gnus-read-mark' is declared) has
been loaded.  I do M-x load-library gnus-sum, and restart gnus.  It
passes that point, hits `gnus-article-save-directory', and dies.  Well,
I check features: `gnus-art' is loaded too.  I do M-x load-library
gnus-art, restart gnus, and all works well.
