`eval-after-load' works fine when you load a library normally.

People who load libraries in weird ways don't expect `eval-after-load'
to work, at least I haven't seen a bug report stating otherwise in the
years `eval-after-load' have been in GNU Emacs.  So don't expect to be
overwhelmed by bug reports from confused users if you add it.

Even if the function is somehow bad karma, it should be available in
obsolete.el as a compatibility function.
