Why would a (require 'xxx) fail when the file xxx.elc is in the a directory
that is IN the load-path list when running emacs in -batch mode?

This is very annoying.  I can NOT determine why this is failing.   I have
even tried running the emacs fromt he directory in which the required files
live, but to no avail!
