While this is a good short term fix, I think what we would ideally want
instead is that those settings be re-evaluated yet-again when we start
the re-dumped Emacs.

So maybe instead of setting the var to t, we should use another var to
denote that we've already init'd those vars (and re-set that other var
some time when we redump).
