This function does not exist anymore and this behavior does not appear
to have survived all the major refactorings.  I also tried to reproduce
the old behavior, but that too indicates that the issue is gone:

,----
| (cl-defmethod testibus ((arg (eql battery)))
|   arg)
| 
| (list (featurep 'battery)
|       (testibus 'battery)
|       (featurep 'battery)
|       (require  'battery))
| => (nil battery nil battery)
`----

So this can be close.  Thanks.
