I shouldn't try to speak for Jari, but since I seconded the idea... This is what
I understood:

-L means add its arg to `load-path'

-l means load my-test.el (processing the `load-path' in the normal way).

-L's action would be done before -l's.  Presumably the -L's would be processed
in order.

The example given is only that: an example.  Nothing special about the
directories used in the example.

Again, Jari might have had something different in mind, but that's what I
imagined.
