GNU Emacs supports a fifth argument to load, MUST-SUFFIX, described as
If optional fifth arg MUST-SUFFIX is non-nil, insist on
the suffix `.elc' or `.el'; don't accept just FILE unless
it ends in one of those suffixes or includes a directory name.
What is this good for (besides breaking the Oort-Gnus build)?
