Or perhaps rename it to `preloaded-file-list' and make it persistent.
Should the miscellaneous `.el's in that variable be removed?

The load-history needs to be reconciled with the
COMPILED_FUNCTION_ANNOTATION_HACK.  An item on the pending list is a
patch done up some months ago to provide the services of
COMPILED_FUNCTION_ANNOTATION_HACK for both variables and functions.
