No, we shouldn't, IMO. We should just behave as if the *.eln files
were unavailable, perhaps with some message logged in *Messages*.
Signaling an error would be shooting the user in his/her foot, because
loading of *.eln files is attempted as part of routine operation, so
signaling an error will prevent the user from being able to invoke
many commands.
