That's not my reading of the code.  How do you see that Emacs looks
for emacs.pdmp before looking for BASENAME_OF_EMACS.pdmp?  My reading
of the code is that we do the exact opposite: emacs.pdmp is looked for
as the last resort.

AFAICT, we already do that, so I'm puzzled why it didn't work for you,
or what am I missing.
