It's not all that strange.  *Messages* records the stream of predominantly
1-line messages which appear in the echo area.  It's not intended as a
general system log.  Too much uninteresting stuff in the echo area could
be distracting and a nuisance.  Usually the exact path of a loaded library
is uninteresting.
