It looks like you & Tamas are caught in a bit of a catch22 here. You
need to have your defvar's evaluated before the same ones in
anything.el are so you want anything-config.el to be loaded
first. However, if anything.el is loaded after anything-config.el,
then the defun's that have the same name get redefined by anything.el
(for example: anything-transform-files). It looks like you'll have to
do 1 of 3 things:

1. If you load anything.el before anything-config.el, you need to
change your defvar's to setq's

2. If you load anything.el after anything-config.el, Tamas will need
to wrap his defun's with a check to see whether a function is already
defined and only do the defun if the function hasn't already been
defined.

3. You could have all your defvar's before the (require 'anything) and
all you defun's after that statement so that your version of the
defvar's and defun's are both used.
