   The below patch fixes that; I'm not aware of a more elegant solution

Was using custom-reevaluate-setting discussed in that thread?  Does
it work in your situation?  I believe it should work, because the
defcustom has no :set function.  I do not immediately know what we
will have to do in similar situations when there is a :set function,
short of pre-loading the file, which might not be desirable.

:custom-initialize-reset was supposed to take care of problems with
autoloaded defcustoms, but apparently, it does not.

Concretely:
