Correct: the version numbers are the saee, but the packages are
different.  The latest pubished naquadah snapshot is 20140101.

balance-windows fails in the latest naquadah update, but ...

...it was a load-path issue.  Whenever I typed w3m, emacs would tell
me that the symbol is undefined.  w3m is in the global site-lisp
(/usr/share/emacs-snapshot/site-lisp/w3m/) and git@master was using
the site-lisp in ~/emacs/.

When I add my user and global directories to the load-path, everything
works fine.

Since git@master works, do you want me to try this before installing
the working emacs as root?
