Yes, the fact that the source of a compiled Lisp file doesn't
necessarily end with ".el".  For example, if you compile a source
file named ~/.emacs, the compiled file is named ~/.emacs.elc.

You're right (though I'd like to know if that's much used outside the
corner ~/.emacs case).

The current behavior, then, has the problem that compiling files with
no extension, or non-default ones:

 mylib => mylib.elc
 mylib.dat => mylib.dat.elc

but help from describe-function and friends points to nonexistent
"mylib.el" and "mylib.dat.el".
