Looking at it some more, here is my thoughts about it: - this problem is only relevant for global minor modes (buffer-local minor modes can't be enabled/disabled via custom). - every global minor mode is either pre-loaded or autoloaded. So we should simply never add thje :require directive and we just need to make sure that the :setter info (custom-set-minor-mode) is included in loaddefs.el for the autoloaded vars so that enabling/disabling will go through the minor mode function and trigger the autoloading. I.e. the sample patch below seems to fix the problem. >> ** Update Speedbar. > The relevant URL is > http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2005-05/msg00180.html > It sounds like this will be fixed soon.
