Lars, please remove this patch (it's very ugly hack IMHO anyway, you
are braking very basic Emacs semantics here). Please Please.

I have my mail-utils.el gzipped so that the .el version of that doesn't exist
either. There are probably other people who have thrown out the .el
files altogether.

Why is it necessary anyway? Local .el/.elc dependencies should be
handled on the Makefile level (or at least in a simular manner). At
least XEmacs finds the .el files before .elc deeper in the load-path.

Jan

Please please

P.S. In case you are wondering I think just reversing the .elc/.el
load order is very ugly too.
