In previous Emacs versions, rmail-ignored-headers was autoloaded, but
not in 23.0.90.  This causes failures at startup if your ~/.emacs
customizes that option.

In GNU Emacs 23.0.90.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)
 of 2009-02-02 on fencepost
configured using `configure  '--without-x''

That would depend on how you customize it (presumably you modify it in
some way that accesses the default value, rather than just setting it
unconditionally); but obviously just add the autoload back again if
it's causing problems.

(In general, some files seem to have been written under the assumption
that all defcustoms should be autoloaded. I think this is bogus, but
once this assumption has been made, it can become impossible to ever
take the autoloads away, for the reason you report here.)

Agreed: autoloading variables is evil.

I customize variables in the simplest possible way: with a setq.  This
always worked for me, since time immemoriam.

I was referring to the difference between:

(setq rmail-ignored-headers "foo")

and

(setq rmail-ignored-headers (concat "foo\\|" rmail-ignored-headers))
