Actually, I do think we should try and detect the problem (and ideally
emit a message/error and maybe even fallback to loading the
non-compiled file).
We do have the necessary info in the `.elc` file (the byte 4th byte
(0-based numbering) of a `.elc` file holds the major version number of
the Emacs on which it was compiled (with some caveat for non-released
Emacs versions, such as 30.0.NN emitting `.elc` files that say "version
29")).
We just need to make use of that info.
