[Ken Raeburn]

branch: scratch/raeburn-startup
commit 6faa843adf72b262acd45d9682224b867b0faab3
Author: Ken Raeburn <address@hidden>
Commit: Ken Raeburn <address@hidden>

    Load documentation at startup.
    
    Documentation pointers for Lisp subrs are currently only loadable via
    Snarf-documentation.
    
    * lisp/loadup.el: Make dumped.elc attempt to reload the DOC file.
    Warn but continue if it fails.
