Okay I'll rework the patch to modify the value in-place in bbdb-site.el > I guess it would be good if on a multi-user machine old and new bbdb > can be installed in parallel. The Debian emacs package infrastructure (called "emacsen-common") sets up installed packages to load their autoloads through site-init, and there isn't any per-user way to shut it off on a per-package basis. And if I were to set up something idiosyncratic to defeat that and let the user choose when both bbdb 2.x and bbdb3 are installed, it would violate people's expectations.
