This means that the following situation will predictably fail:

  . Emacs session A (or just some shell command) rebases a .eln file
  . Emacs session B decides it needs to load that .eln

What kind of failure will session B see in this case?  Is it possible
to figure out somehow that this is the reason, so that we could
instead try loading the .elc or .el?

Or maybe we should add an automatic fallback on .elc/.el in case
loading a .eln fails?  Andrea, WDYT? will that work?
