EFS 1.14 bug: dired/dired-x again

Gruss bug team:

Back in August a couple of people discussed the incompatibilities
between efs' dired and GNU Emacs' dired-x.  The symptoms involved
modified directory contents not showing up in the dired buffer;
hitting g sets it straight.

The upshot was (I guess) that a correctly loaded efs dired does all
that dired-x does, and updates its buffer without the distracting
manual intervention.  But I missed the boat when someone explained how
it's done.  My setup works, but not without hitting g all the time.

I load efs and efs-auto; and the library where I put efs is ahead of
the default GNU library in my load-path.  I believe, after re-reading
all the relevant instructions, that I'm doing everything -- and it
ain't much -- by the book.

I know it's tiresome solving the same problem solved last summer, but
I'd be obliged if some kind soul could reveal what trick I missed.
