I think this is a bug also, and one which will get worse as the number of
autoload files increases on master.

It's easy to fix -- we just need to disable backup files in the batch
autoload generator.

It seems to me that this issue is a little wider than autoload files,
though -- some files in cedet seem to show the same behaviour.
