I didn't mean to say that provide should run the after-load thingies
when load-file-name is nil.  I meant to say that in your case, this
would only be a workaround, whereas the real fix should be to setup
load-file-name appropriately (tho it's only a guess on my part, since
I don't fully understand what's going on).
