LGTM, thanks.

I never use admin/update_autogen, I just regenerate loaddefs.el (as in
"make -C lisp autoloads-force") and the do what make-tarball.txt says:

  5.  Copy lisp/loaddefs.el to lisp/ldefs-boot.el.  After copying, edit
      ldefs-boot.el to add

      ;; no-byte-compile: t

      to its file-local variables section, otherwise make-dist will
      complain.

And I just did that, so we should be okay for a while.
