I stumbled onto a related thing earlier tonight -- I said `M-x
byte-compile-file RET RET' and then it did nothing -- because of the
no-byte-compile.

I'm not sure whether I agree with that -- if I've explicitly asked Emacs
to do it, I think that should override the cookie.  Or at least issue a
message of some sort.
