Looks like a bug in bug-reference.el.
For map-ynp.el, I think it's normal because that file is preloaded.

That should be fixed, and is probably a left-over from adapting the
filename to 8+3 limitations.

userlock should arguably be preloaded. patcomp.el is obsolete and not
worth fixing, and the other two indeed aren't really Lisp packages so
don't need a `provide'.

You might be right (at least the etc/forms/*.el files shouldn't be
there), tho I'm not sure how important this is.

That's an oversight, yes, thank you,
