bug#2061: 23.0.60; Add preference to force load of Elisp files when they are newer than corresponding byte-compiled file |

A common case for me is "bzr pull" or "cvs update" or "tla star-merge"
to bring in new changes. I don't look at all the Elisp files brought in
so byte-compile-file is not convenient, and byte-compilation often leads
to odd results because the `require's read the old .elc files.
Are you saying that in this case you would want to load the .el files
instead?
If so, I wonder if the right solution is to do something special when loading
a file for `require' in compilation. Perhaps offer to compile them?
