The batch-update-autoloads docstring says that it "calls 'update- |
| 13 |
directory-autoloads' on the command line arguments." The function |
| 14 |
update-directory-autoloads is, in turn, obsoleted in favor of loaddefs- |
| 15 |
generate from loaddefs-gen.el (which replaces autoload.el). |

Can we bypass the obsolete autoload.el entirely here, instead calling |
| 18 |
loaddefs-generate directly? |
