before-init-time and after-init-time have already been introduced in
Emacs 23; see NEWS.  The former is used for the new function
emacs-uptime, the latter I'm unsure about.

Since these variables already exist, my feeling is that it's better to
use them rather than to come up with a new flag saying that Emacs is
being initialized.
