Nor for me.  I test my changes too, you know.

What I broke is the case where the build directory is below the
top-level source directory.  Now fixed.

Yep, guilty as charged.

I now claim that the original code was not broken at all (and have
restored it completely, erasing my small change that broke Jan's
build).  It "works for me", in the sense that the autoloads target is
invoked when Lisp files change.  Please consider explaining why you
think that code is broken.
