Is there some fast way of finding out other than
checking the source for each module and variable?

I know of the line "You can customize this variable."
in the help which is a consequence (?) of setting it
up with `defcustom'.

Maybe I should just remove all the `require' stuff and
use `defvar' and see what happens... Or, I should
require *everything* first thing and then be done with
it! (...but I like to think that only beginner
programmers think in binary.)

It would help to know exactly when the byte-compiler
say that free variable stuff, and ditto elint
unbound variable.
