I have made a very hasty pass at this.  The correct fix, I believe, is to add a
load_module routine that does the same things as load(), but never guesses
at whether the user means a file or a module.  This needs a bit more work,
at least, but it might already be mostly correct.

It's in the branch rjbs/module-load-module and this is the commit:
