Yes, that's correct.

That requires some changes here and there.  Though I just tried that,
it may not be exhaustive and I'm not sure if it is safe to use
ENCODE_FILE in init_callproc.  Also, this kind of changes may not be
appropriate at this stage.

I tried your patch and unfortunately, it does not fix the startup problem.
Error messages are the same.

The good news is that I can start up an Emacs with -Q and -nw (as before, complaining about encoded-kb), but then, `load-file' works with a file that resides inside the offending path, which it didn't before.
