Package: Emacs
Version: 30.0.50
1. Customize `load-prefer-newer` to t.
2. Edit project.el in-tree, save it, don't recompile Emacs.
3. Restart Emacs.
4. Visit some code file and try to launch `M-x eglot` there.
You should get an error along the lines of:
require-with-check: Feature ‘project’ loaded from
".../lisp/progmodes/project.el" is now provided by
".../lisp/progmodes/project.elc"
This error is spurious. AFAICT, it is due to the fact that
`require-with-check` uses `locate-file` to "guess" which file `load`
would use, but `locate-file` doesn't obey `load-prefer-newer`, so it
guesses wrong.

One approach is to expose the `prefer` option of `openp` to
`locate-file` so we can use it in `require-with-check`, as in the
patch below.

Another is to replace the `assoc` check with one that is more lenient,
ignoring difference in file extensions. E.g. the patch below.
This makes the change more localized, at the cost of making
`require-with-check` slower and less strict.
WDYT?

Either patch is fine by me, but having the change more localized is
certainly nice.
Do you have any other use case in mind for the new PREFER-NEWER argument
of `locate-file` than `require-with-check`? If not, perhaps we should
avoid making it more complex?

Agreed.

In principle, it's nice to be able to reproduce *exactly* the search
performed by `load` and `require`, but in practice, I don't have any
real use case, no.
I pushed the more localized patch (after fixing it so it actually
works).
