It's preferrable to use NTEmacs for this step, even though the .elc files should be compatible. > I didn't spend any time trying to correct install locations in the > makefile.

As long as all the autoloaded functions continue to be in the same load-file and their names don't change and there are no new functions that need to be autoloaded, org-install.el effectively isn't going to change. But that's a deception, since there is no way you could determine if it should have been changed unless you actually generate it anew. As I said, I'm still working to provide specifically for the case that org-version.el is missing (which would normally produce an autoloaded defconst org-version...) and injecting an org-version from looking at the git version of the work-tree (if it finds one). That will also encompass an (autoloaded) function (with the load-file located in UTILITIES/ most likely) that you can call in emacs to re-generate org-install.el, since org-install.el is absolutely not optional. So going forward make will not be a requirement for simply using org either from Git or from tarball anymore.
