The conversion from \r in button.el in

;;;###autoload
(defvar button-map
  (let ((map (make-sparse-keymap)))
    (define-key map "\r" 'push-button)
    (define-key map [mouse-2] 'push-button)
    map)
  "Keymap used by buttons.")

happens in `read' in `autoload-generate-file-autoloads' in autoload.el:

              ;; Read the next form and make an autoload.
              (let* ((form (prog1 (read (current-buffer))
                             (or (bolp) (forward-line 1))))
                     (autoload (make-autoload form load-name)))
                (if autoload
                    (push (nth 1 form) autoloads-done)
                  (setq autoload form))
                (let ((autoload-print-form-outbuf outbuf))
                  (autoload-print-form autoload)))

Would it help to write the key binding as

    (define-key map [(control ?m)] 'push-button)

I just tried, but ldefs-boot.el was not changed. When is ldefs-boot.el 
created? Where is this described?

However chaning the bindings in ldefs-boot.el directly makes bootstrap 
succeed.
