We should be able to bring those way down:

1 - just before dumping, turn things like "lisp-mode.elc"
    into "emacs-lisp/lisp-mode.elc".  This requires many stat calls but
    who cares.
2 - at startup blindly prepend /foo/bar/22.0.50/lisp/ to each and every
    non-absolute item in load-history.  No stat calls here.
