locate-library only does a (message ...) when it is invoked
interactively as per one way coordination with Erik Naggum (he
indicated Emacs 19.35 was making a similar correction but refused to
tell me what he had in mind).  The response is there -- it's in the
SPC*Message-Log* buffer.  The new behavior makes it much nicer to call
locate-library in .emacs so this limitation is acceptable to me.

FWIW 19.14 behaved the same way.
