Not at present.  `make autoloads' had never worked very well[1] in the
not-so-distant past.  Since it now appears ready for prime beta-tester
time, we should probably work out targets for making autoloads with
every build.  It's very fast when done incrementally and increasingly
reliable.

This is good news.  Does -O6 work?

Footnotes: 
[1]  Debugging problems during `make autoloads' is hellish.  This is
reason enough to phase its usage in slowly as it becomes more reliable.
