Bug#594750: ess: debian-pkg-add-load-path-item

[Kevin Ryde]

Package: ess
Version: 5.11-1
Severity: minor
File: /etc/emacs/site-start.d/50ess.el

/usr/share/doc/emacsen-common/debian-emacs-policy.gz section 9 asks lisp
add-ons to add directories with debian-pkg-add-load-path-item rather
than directly modifying load-path the way 50ess.el does.

I believe debian-pkg-add-load-path-item is available as of "sarge"
emacsen-common 1.4.14 of June 2002.  It aims to keep /usr/local ahead of
packaged lisp dirs so that /usr/local has precedence.
