This happens because Emacs thinks this file is remote.  It is almost a
duplicate of bug#5303, except that 5303 talked about files without an
extension, while this one is specific to .elc files.

I fixed this in revision 105479 on the trunk, by handling the DOS_NT
specific situation where `openp' returns -2, but there's no `load'
handler for the file.
