Hi Nick,
The initialization error was coming when one of my files was being
evaluated. If I don't require org-latex, the compiled version of org
will initialize.
*** OFF Require org-latex
#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle no
(require 'org-latex)
#+end_src
However, evaluating (require 'org-latex) in *scratch* yields this
familiar error:
