Are you sure adding ;;;###autoload was needed for this to work, 
or was it just because you used `make autoloads'?

Not really.  It was always needed to create autoloads (either in
org-install.el or now in org-loaddefs.el) when using Org from Git.

See `make autoloads' for Org 7.7 already creates org-install.el:
http://orgmode.org/cgit.cgi/org-mode.git/plain/Makefile?id=release_7.7

Yes, I will update both the manual and the Worg page.  

Thanks!
