Hmm... there's something odd in your patches: they only affect
locate-library, not `load' and not `require', so they won't find "foo.gz".

Also the use of jka-compr-* in subr.el seems unclean.  Since the `load' is
in C code the uncleanliness of using jka-compr-* there would be even worse.

Maybe it'd be better to introduce a variable "load-no-suffix-suffixes",
originally set to '("").
