If a non-trivial .emacs is loaded after Emacs starts, the effect might
be different from the same .emacs loaded at startup, due to the stage
of the startup sequence where .emacs is normally loaded.  This could
surprise users, unless we write a special load function that takes
care of these subtleties.
