What is the motive for computing the truename in Fload?

I don't like the use of regexp-opt.  Can you get rid of that?

The function loaded-filename does not seem very useful,
and is easy to get rid of, so would you please do so?

    !     Lisp_Object Qdo_after_load_evaluation
    !       = intern ("do-after-load-evaluation") ;

That symbol should be file-scope, and initialized in
syms_of_lread, in the normal way.

    !      else
    !        Fsignal (Qerror,
    !                 Fcons (make_string
    !                        ("Fload: can't find do-after-load-evaluation",
    !                         42), Qnil)) ;
    !   }

It should do nothing, not signal an error.

    +       Lisp_Object Qfile_truename = intern ("file-truename") ;

Likewise here.
