That's not what the previous backtrace showed though: the ditaa path
calculation was directly implicated.

In any case, the above shouldn't happen as long as you have done
``make autoloads'' or equivalent and 

   (require 'org-install)

beforehand, and in fact it does not happen in my case:

  emacs -q -l /path/to/minimal/.emacs

with the following minimal .emacs, starts up without error:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
;;; -*- mode: emacs-lisp -*-
;;; constant part
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/src/emacs/org/org-mode/lisp"))
(add-to-list 'load-path (expand-file-name "~/src/emacs/org/org-mode/contrib/lisp"))

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.\\(org\\|org_archive\\|txt\\)$" . org-mode))

(require 'org-install)

(setq debug-on-error t)
(setq debug-on-quit t)
(setq eval-expression-print-length nil)
(setq eval-expression-print-level nil)

(global-set-key "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
(global-set-key "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)

(require 'org-latex)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


OTOH, even if I leave out the (require 'org-install), I get no error
(and that's after removing the org that came with emacs and making sure
that I have compiled everything), so I'm a bit baffled right now.
