Packages triggered by autoload might add the rest of their hierarchy
into load-path.
Emacs has no way of finding the source code automatically when that
happens. But this could be a good reason to search the .el files in
load-path if it doesn't find them in the source code directory list.
So we can do that, I guess. It can't hurt.
