load-history-filename-element expects the variable load-history to be a
list of lists. The car of each of the sublists is supposed to be a string
(a pathname) and the cdr is supposed to be a list of dotted pairs of the form
(require . something)

Apparently, your load-history fails to conform by having a sublist
that's missing the pathname and starting with a dotted pair.

I think you should check load-history after every load and see where
it goes awry.
