Very cofusing, but I at last found out why. Since this `requre' is a top
level form, byte-compiler evaluates it, and `fila-name-directory' fails
because `load-file-name' is nil :-(

We should add something like this:
diff --git a/GNUmakefile b/GNUmakefile
index 01608188..3ef225e6 100644
--- a/GNUmakefile
+++ b/GNUmakefile
