This is what I have done extensively in the manual, but this has not
kept people from doing (require 'org) in .emacs.
I have been fighting hard to get people to use (require 'org-
install),
so I did not want to punish them when they move to Emacs 23 and want
to use the Emacs version. Admittedly, this is not very likely.
Also, I do want to keep the option that org-install will do more than
just install autoloads.
So while I don't have strong feelings about removing org-install
from Emacs again, I cannot really see the point either.

The usage of org-install has the pre-requisite of having to compile
the org.el files. This is no use to people like myself, who want to
use the same .el files in XEmacs and Emacs due to incompatible .elc
problems. Its also no use to people who do no have a build system or
make binary installed e.g. windows users, locked down linux/unix
systems etc.
How about adding a skeleton org-install.el that gets overwritten by
the make?
