Normally, in startup file, Elisp applications should use `autoload' instead of `require'. However, loading un-define could fail if other elisp programs related to coding systems/characters were already loaded. So, I, the maintainer, won't change the current behavior (loading un-define early in startup by default). BTW, Emacs 22 will grant your wish. Emacs 22.0.50 (development version of 22.1) supports utf-* coding systems by default, and CJK large tables are loaded automatically/dynamically. Thanks, -- Tatsuya Kinoshita
