Subject:      "source" in mode declaration

I think that this is a bug -- several modes now use the "source" option for
the initialization proc, which "hard-wires" the path of the file to be
sourced in the :PREFS:Cache:...:mode file.  (As opposed to giving a
relative path to $HOME.)

If any part of this path changes after package indices have been built,
however, such as changing the name of the "Alpha f" folder to "Alpha
7.4fc2", then this path is no longer valid, and these       modes will
apparently no longer properly load.
