I'm unable to reproduce this -- "make autoloads" just says

  GEN      loaddefs.el
  INFO     Scraping files for loaddefs... 
  INFO     Scraping files for loaddefs...done

Does "make autoloads-force" also fail for you?  In that case, perhaps
there's a bug in the code that's computing the updates, and in that
case, it depends on which files are newer than loaddefs.el.  Hm...

Could you try removing the "c" from "elc" here:

$(lisp)/loaddefs.el: gen-lisp $(LOADDEFS)
	$(AM_V_GEN)$(emacs) \
            -l $(lisp)/emacs-lisp/loaddefs-gen.elc \
	    -f loaddefs-generate-batch $(lisp)/loaddefs.el ${SUBDIRS_ALMOST}

That should give us a more detailed backtrace.
