Hi Ian,

Thanks for the suggestion.  It turned out that the error was that I
had a file called org.el (that contains my settings) that somehow ended
up in the load-path during the migration, so it was mistakenly loaded
in place of org-mode's org.el.  An embarrassingly stupid error on my
part.

But at least now I have the git version :-)

Thanks for the help,

Tamas
