Thanks! With some effort I got it working now with orgmode from git; -
okay, it's not bad. Having said that I find it's too much work to do.
In my opinion a `git pull` to obtain the current orgmode version and
adding the directory to the load path is far less time consuming. So
most probably I will refrain from using el-get.
