You should not add contrib/ to load-path at all:

,----[ contrib/README ]
| Please note that it is not good to just add this directory to

| more recent Emacs versions, so that you might be running obsolete
| libraries with all kinds of ill effects.

| The suggested method for installation is to copy those files that you
| need to a directory which is in load-path.

Bye, Reiner.
