Over 50 hidings are no problem? This is a bit more than the famous DeuBa 
peanuts! Did you see that GNU Emacs cannot load one of these shadows 
("/home/rainer/.emacs.d/org/lisp/org-clock.el")? It's probably best to use that 
emacs binary which also byte-compiled the Elisp files in your ~/.emacs.d branch 
during the make process.

And don't use the configure argument

        
--enable-locallisppath=/etc/emacs23:/etc/emacs:/usr/local/share/emacs/23.4/site-lisp:/usr/local/share/emacs/site-lisp:/usr/share/emacs/23.4/site-lisp:/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp

but first read the output of

        ./configure --help

and compare the values (or settings) this output implies with what you do! And 
what you have! The --enable-locallisppath option takes only places outside the 
regular ones, which are those set during the configure process. You should not 
tell GNU Emacs to use whatever init files for which ever Emacs versions it can 
find on your system. (And there is only one site-start.el file it loads.) You 
might then also be able to leave out the many *dir settings for the configure 
script.


Putting this in your site init file will enable you to see in *Messages* buffer 
which files GNU Emacs loads:

        (defadvice load (before debug-log activate)
          (message "(Tipp von Kai G) Lade jetzt: %s" (ad-get-arg 0)))
