I'll try to read make-docfile.c, however, someone on this list
probably can provide quick answer to this puzzle before I solve it.
What's really strange is out of all those elc files following files
are seemingly and deliberately left as el files.

cus-start.el, loadup.el, loaddefs.el, bindings.el,
international/mule-conf.el, paths.el, version.el
