Ok - that makes sense. I just checked in my contrib/lisp and I only have .el
there, so none are
compiled.

specify that one as well.
No problem.

Absolutely - thanks.

Yes - that is what I am doing as well.
Just for clarifications: is there any problem with adding
ORG_ADD_CONTRIB = *
to the local.mk file, apart from slightly longer compilation times?

Ok - I'll change it accordingly.
