Emacs keeps reseting custom-set-variables in .emacs

[Micha Feigin]

Emacs keeps deleting all the entrees I have in custom-set-variables and
custom-set-faces each time I load emacs and nothing I do seems to help.
These values were saved some time ago with the options->save options
menu entry.

I have my emacs settings in cvs with .emacs a symbolic link to
.emacs.d/emacs if it matters and the emacs version is emacs bidi which
is based on 21.3.50.

The entree if it helps:
