OK, so something like menu-bar-options-save should contain a few  
require's then.
I've written something that'll automatically save the options at the  
end of an Emacs session.The user is asked whether to actually do that  
if they have changed. Obviously, I don't want to ask if there is no  
change, which means I'll need to load the appropriate libraries at  
that point.

Maybe that's something that menu-bar-options-save should do as well,  
because as it stands now, the customizations are always written to  
file, whether there have been changes or not (unless all those  
libraries have been loaded).
