That means thingatpt+.el wasn't loaded.
You likely need to either (1) change the file
name "thingatpt" to be absolute or relative
to where you're evaluating that sexp or (2)
use symbol `thingatpt' instead of a string.
Try the latter first.
See what `C-h f eval-after-load' says about
arg FILE.

If you loaded it (e.g. using `load-library)
then it's loaded. The reason it's not
overwriting the vanilla functions is no doubt
because file "thingatpt" never got loaded, so
the `eval-after-load' code never got evaluated.
I was probably too cryptic in writing just
"thingatpt". Sorry. Hopefully it's clear now.
