This is not a problem.
If at the end of the in it file the defcustom has not been executed
then the setq of the variable will cause no trouble. Executing the defcustom
will fix things up.
If at the end of the in it file the defcustom HAS been executed,
then the variable will be on all the lists it is supposed to be on,
and the fix I proposed will DTRT with it.
