Sort of a nothing reason really. I started out trying to figure out what OS developers (of gentoo) had inserted in places that would load before my own site-start file. I could have just put (message "here I is") in them and seen if that turned up before site-start.el. So far as having unlimited Messages buffer; I don't find that it gets over run just on a startup, and thats the only time I was concerned with. Gentoo developers put these files in place when you install emacs with their `emerge' tool: /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-gentoo.el This directory: /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-gentoo.d And these files: ls /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/site-gentoo.d 20emacs-22-gentoo.el 20emacs-cvs-23-gentoo.el 50bbdb-gentoo.el 50git-gentoo.el 50guile-gentoo.el 50libidn-gentoo.el 50librep-gentoo.el 50sawfish-gentoo.el 65emacs-wget-gentoo.el 71emacs-w3m-gentoo.el It appears to be some kind of timed loading. I was trying to figure out what it all did. Sorry to have made so much line noise about this.
