Subject: 24.4.50; `package-load-list': incorrect defcustom type
Date: Mon, 19 May 2014 09:26:45 -0700 (PDT)
The defcustom type is (repeat symbol), but the doc string says that it
should be a repetition of entries like this:

1. The symbol `all' (only).
2. List (NAME VERSION), where NAME is a symbol and VERSION is one of
   these: t, a string, or nil.

So it is currently effectively impossible to customize this option.
