I use Emacs from CVS and Gnus from CVS. I have the following code in
~/.emacs to set up load-path and suchlike:
;; Gnus
(when (file-directory-p "~/work/gnu/gnus/")
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/work/gnu/gnus/lisp/")
(require 'gnus-load)
(require 'gnus-namazu "../contrib/gnus-namazu")
(add-to-list 'Info-default-directory-list "~/work/gnu/gnus/texi/"))
Further Gnus configuration is in ~/.gnus.
I recently had to add (load "netrc") to the beginning of that file to
make things work.
I think a similar issue was discussed in the thread "Problems with
reading mail via imap".
Shouldn't gnus-load arrange for the right netrc to be loaded?
[time passes]
Ah! It turns out that I require dired and dired-x earlier on in my
~/.emacs file. Never thought that those would interfere.
So is it pilot error after all?

Are you saying that dired end up loading (the wrong) netrc.el?
I guess one should modify load-path before loading anything.
