This feature is not documented in the Elisp for Emacs 21, and is thus
probably available only in GNU Emacs 22.  Even after the release of Emacs
22, it will still be necessary to Edebug CC Mode with other Emacsen.

I don't think this invalidates my main point, namely that there are valid
uses of eval-after-load.
