Hi,

I think `eval-defun' (C-M-x) on a defcustom which has should evaluate
the :initialize or :set function.

Real-life example: Changing the list of regexps in
`smiley-regexp-alist' and doing `C-M-x' has no effect.  I modified and
evaluated the defcustom several times until I noticed that I need to
eval `(smiley-update-cache)' as well before my change does anything.

Bye, Reiner.
