I agree. How about the following change?

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
         :name "elisp-flymake-byte-compile"
         :buffer output-buffer
         :command `(,(expand-file-name invocation-name invocation-directory)

                    "--batch"
                    ;; "--eval" "(setq load-prefer-newer t)" ; for testing
                    ,@(mapcan (lambda (path) (list "-L" path))

I am not sure if it is a good idea to always include the site-lisp
directories. I myself want this only when checking my init.el. When
developing packages, I prefer a pristine environment.
