 If you specify multiple @samp{-L} options, Emacs preserves the
 relative order; i.e., using @samp{-L /foo -L /bar} results in
 a @code{load-path} of the form @code{("/foo" "/bar" @dots{})}.
+If @var{dir} begins with @samp{:}, Emacs removes the @samp{:} and
+appends (rather than prepends) the remainder to @code{load-path}.
