I'm confused.
How can the script have worked and compiled but not left an org.elc in
/home/bill/emacs/lisp/org ?
Can you tell me whether the compile worked ? has it left an org.elc in
/home/bill/emacs/lisp/org ?
Also, have you added a line to your .emacs along the lines of
(add-to-list 'load-path "/home/bill/emacs/lisp/org/")
If not, that would explain why it is not loading up.
For the permissions stuff, I'm guessing here, but if you untarred it as
root, root will restore the files with the original permissions, not
yours.
Try removing /home/bill/emacs/lisp/org-5.17a, and
/home/bill/emacs/lisp/org, and running as yourself, not root.
