I just don't know (perhaps out of ignorance) how the Org that ships with Emacs has been a benefit to me. I think you and I have different definitions of "problem". From my user's perspective, something I "get away with," i.e., that doesn't have an effect on my work and productivity, isn't a problem. BTW, it was your build system that helped me recognize I had a mixed install, so I could finally squash some bugs that had pestered and perplexed me for a long time. What a relief that was!
