I still have a problem with one configuration (but not with another),
but I haven't drilled down to figure out what the problem is. I was
wondering however if the eval-after-load should be predicated on
bbdb-com rather than bbdb[fn:1]: with this change, both of my tested
configurations work (hardly a definitive test but perhaps better than
nothing).

[fn:1] ... the reason being that the fboundp test is on
       bbdb-record-get-field-internal, which is defined in bbdb-com.el.
