error during appt/agenda initialization

[Fraga, Eric]

Hello all,

I upgraded (on a different system) org-mode from git and I now find that
my emacs start-up hangs.  If I C-g out of it, I get the following
backtrace:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

If I comment out the (org-agenda-to-appt) line in my configuration,
Emacs starts up just fine.

Any suggestions?  Other systems, with the same configuration (but older
versions of org mode), start up just fine, as I have just verified by
starting emacs on the desktop I'm using to compose this email.

Thank you,
eric
