Oops! Right now I tried this, it really behaves this way. I suspected 
initially that this was the case, but in a quick experiment it had 
worked for both "require" and "load", so I became confused. But now I 
realized I tried it with ".rb" extension rather than ".rbx". /me stupid.

I didn't notice the "file" part in the "file _and_ directory have 
correct permissions", so the permissions problem as a logical 
afterthought and advice didn't strike this obstacle. :-D
