I've now installed a fix, and I'm closing the bug.

When temacs (not emacs) is invoked, it is supposed to load all the
preloaded Lisp files, and then start up normally.

However, with Emacs 28 compiled with native-compilation, this
strangely not always works.  Here's what I found:

  . On GNU/Linux:

    - cd src && ./temacs -Q -nw works as expected
    - ./src/temacs -Q -nw fails with this error message:

      Symbol's function definition is void: internal-echo-keystrokes-prefix

  . On MS-Windows:

    - cd src && ./temacs -Q -nw works as expected
    - ./src/temacs -Q -nw works, but loads *.elc files instead of *.eln

In all the cases, temacs was invoked from the build directory.  I
don't understand why the different behavior.  Any ideas?
