I agree with this, although I'd like to keep generation of the loaddefs
as simple as possible for a variety of reasons; each requires a separate
invocation during build, and IIRC, this is part of the build which is
not parallelizable.

I am trying and we will see.

We have to something special ELPA packages and their directory
structure, whether that it is working out how to move them into the
existing structure, or having some packages build and installed as part
of the normal build process.
