[AC21.4] Autoload already loaded

Ville> Maybe this is the reason why the recent package site update Ville> didn't propagate to lisp/auto-autoloads.el in 21.4.10RC2? No. A close look at the 21.4 Makefile shows that nothing depends on the autoloads target, so it only gets built if you do "make autoloads" explicitly. The 21.5 Makefile doesn't have an autoloads target at all. Something else is going on there. This lack of dependency apparently an optimization. Dumb. I'm going make all-elcs depend on autoloads; this means that every full build does make autoloads. If you don't like that (you're working on C code, for example) do "make lib-src lwlib src" until you're happy with the compiler messages, and then do "make". I'm not sure what happens in 21.5; I'll take a closer look later.
