* src/lread.c: (dump_path): Remove. (load-path-default): Remove `changed' argument. Do not set dump_path permanently. Simplify. (init_lread): Simplify. (syms_of_lread): Remove dump_path. * lisp/loadup.el (load-path): Warn if site-load or site-init changes it. No more need to reset it when bootstrapping. * doc/lispref/internals.texi (Building Emacs): * doc/lispref/loading.texi (Library Search): Mention that site-load, site-init cannot change load-path. * INSTALL: No longer mention load-path and site-init/site-load. * etc/NEWS: Mention this.
