I'll summarize things (especially for Drew's benefit) in a new message, back up-thread.

It's a feature: when we specify an extension we get exactly what we ask for, when we specify without any extension we get the default behavior of favoring the most compiled version available, creating the ELN if we can when we have an ELC but no ELN.
