There is a problem with the build system for .eln files. The Makefile only has a
target creating *.elc files. This means that if you use Emacs to change an .el
file and you set it up to byte-compile .el files on save you will never
recompile the .eln files.

This can also be reproduced if you press C-c on a terminal that is
native-compiling. The .eln file will not be produced, but the .elc will be in
the filesystem and `make` will not try to native-compile the file again.
