Thanks,
I did use a comma to evaluate the variable but without the backtick
which I believed caused that "old style backticks" warning.

(setq org-agenda-files (list org-dir))
Equivalently
(setq org-agenda-files `(,org-dir))
That's a backquote (on a US keyboard, it's the key to the left of the
1 key in the top row), not a normal quote. See
(info "(elisp) Backquote")
The (list org-dir) form is quite readable here, but when things get
more complicated, the backquote form tends to be more readable than
manufacturing list structure by hand.

But how would I do this with the variable?
(setq org-agenda-files '(org-dir))
(setq org-agenda-files '(,(org-dir))
