It is rather unclean to have a defcustom inside a function.
Let's try to solve this1 some other way.
The conventional way to handle custom definitions for variables
that are defined too early to use defcustom is thru cus-start.el.
Could you make it work that way?
I see that, for variables set up in cus-start.el, the standard value
is merely whatever value happens to be in effect when cus-edit is
loaded. This is a lot like a suggestion that someone made
for how to handle settings in the init file. However, it's not right
for this case. So I added a feature to make it possible to specify
a standard value expression for each variable.
Does this patch work right?
