Ok, just thought I'd ask. It's not too hard to work around anyway.
For anyone who's interested, here's what I did to work around the bug in
Emacs 29 and earlier:
--------------------
(use-package text-mode
:preface
(defun user/turn-on-auto-fill (&optional recursive)
"Turn on `auto-fill-mode', but fix things if it got set globally.
See <https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=64439>."
(turn-on-auto-fill)
(when (default-value 'auto-fill-function)
(message "`auto-fill-function' got set globally; fixing it...")
(setq-default auto-fill-function nil)
(when recursive
(error (concat "Recursively setting the default value of "
"`auto-fill-function'!")))
(run-with-timer 0 nil
(lambda (buf)
(with-current-buffer buf
(user/turn-on-auto-fill)))
(current-buffer))))
:init
(add-hook 'text-mode-hook (if (< emacs-major-version 30)
#'user/turn-on-auto-fill
#'turn-on-auto-fill)))
