My advice is to use a separate file, the value of user option `custom-file', for
customizations that are written automatically when you use Customize (e.g., `M-x
customize-option').

That keeps such generated code away from any code that you write in your init
file (~/.emacs).  Let Customize fiddle with `custom-file', and keep your init
file for your own fiddlings.
