RE: file-requires or load-history seems wrong

        If I use `load-library' or `require' to load a library, the entry in
        `load-history' uses the library name - that is, the file
        name sans extension and sans directory.

        If I use `load-file' to load a library, the entry in
        `load-history' uses the absolute file name.

        As a result, function `file-requires' of library `loadhist.el' does
        not seem to do the right thing...

    I see why this could cause trouble in some cases, but I don't
    see a way to solve the problem.

If load-history cannot be fixed to treat load-file like the others, then
can't file-requires at least be fixed to take both forms into account?
