Just a reminder that --enable-locallisppat= h=3DPATH seems not to work
(I mentioned that in my original post). Also = I'm not sure how you would
use it to add "ROOT/../si= te-lisp", which is what you would need for
backward compatibility.

I'd prefer to poll users whether they use that ../site-lisp direc= tory,
before adding this to the instructions. =A0I suspect very few do, which
would mean we make the instructions more complex than they already
are.

FWIW I asked my two Emacs-using co-wor= kers. One uses ROOT\..\site-lisp
(but doesn't have strong feelings e= ither way), the other has no user- or site-
lisp files at all.
