Re: Problem on lookup with 21.1.15

*.el are installed into incorrect directory. After I move them into
correct place, the lookup works fine.
O.K. Good.
So, the remaining question is "Is it correct behavier that
"load" shows an
error when 'nil' is included in load-path?"
Probably. What does nil mean as an element of a path? The DOC string
for `load-path' is wrong though.
`load-path' is a simple built-in variable.
Value: ...
Documentation:
*List of directories to search for files to load.
Each element is a string (directory name) or nil (try default directory).
Note that the elements of this list *may not* begin with "~", so you must
call `expand-file-name' on them before adding them to this list.
That last part is wrong. Correct me if I'm mistaken, but I seem to
recall that we have blessed usage of "~" in the load-path. It seems
to work.
