Please don't add /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/w3m to load-path in
w3m-el's emacsen-startup.  Because debian-pkg-add-load-path-item
should be used in emacsen-startup and it does not specify any
particular order in which paths will be inserted into load-path.
So, adding /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/w3m causes a problem that
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/w3m/*.el files are preferred rather
than /usr/share/emacs21/site-lisp/w3m/*.elc files.

One possible workaround is making symlinks to the *.el in the
*.elc directory when byte-compiling, mentioned in
emacsen-common's bug #122444.
