    <p>Not knowing how your Emacs is installed, it's difficult to pin down a solution. The first thing I'd try is to disable loading of the <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Initial-Options.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">site file</a></p> <pre><code>emacs --no-site-file </code></pre> <p>to see if it is loaded from there. It might also be loaded in the library <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Startup-Summary.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>default</code></a>, but since it is loaded <em>before</em> your .emacs, and <code>default</code> is loaded afterwards, that probably isn't the culprit.</p> <p>If your admins <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Building-Emacs.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">dumped</a> Emacs with CEDET already loaded, you're out of luck, and will certainly have to roll your own.</p> <p>That being said, downloading, building and installing Emacs is just as easy as any other bit of software. If I recall, these were the steps: <code>gtar xfz emacs-23.1.tar.gz; cd emacs-23.1; ./configure; gmake; gmake install</code>.</p> <hr> <p>In response to the comment (that you want to still load the rest of <code>site-start</code>), I'd try the following:</p> <ol> <li>Talk to whomever administers your system to get them to fix site-start (the library name is stored in the variable <a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/elisp/html_node/Init-File.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><code>site-run-file</code></a>) to not load that stuff but instead to put that kind of stuff in <code>default</code> (which is loaded <em>after</em> the user's <code>.emacs</code>)</li> <li><p>While waiting for #1 to resolve (if it ever does), invoke Emacs like so</p> <p><code>emacs -q --no-site-file -l hack.el</code></p></li> </ol> <p>where hack.el contains something like</p> <pre><code>;;; some changes to load-path to put your stuff in front of the load-path` (if site-run-file (load site-run-file t t)) ;;; now load your .emacs </code></pre> <p>To find the <code>site-run-file</code>, use <code>M-x find-library</code> and the name stored in <code>site-run-file</code>.</p> <p>If your admins are vi users and know nothing about Emacs (like mine were at my former job), you can either educate them and hope for the best, or punt and start rolling your own.</p>
