what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See

When 'org-babel-load-languages includes '(gnuplot . t), M-x org-mode
RET, or equivalently editing a *.org file, generates a File mode
specification error:

rather than simply enabling org-mode.
Reproducible with command:
,----
| emacs -Q --load /tmp/emacs/init.el /tmp/xxx.org
`----
Where /tmp/emacs/init.el contains:
,----
| (add-to-list 'load-path "~/git/org-mode/lisp")
|
| (custom-set-variables
| ;; custom-set-variables was added by Custom.
| ;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
| ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
| ;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
| '(org-babel-load-languages '((gnuplot . t))))
`----
Target file /tmp/xxx.org need not exist. Its use on the command line is
simply to call 'org-mode.
Workaround is simply to remove '((gnuplot . t)) from
'org-babel-load-languages
Cheers,
Hugh
