I guess that makes sense, and the implementation looks OK to me, but
what's the use case? The reason `find-function' does look into .el.gz
files is that on some (many?) distributions, the .el files in Emacs are
distributed with Emacs (sometimes in a separate package), but in .gz
form.
I've never seen gzipped .c files in the wild -- is that something that's
done?
