For installation purposes ldefs-boot.el is redundant. (In a
distribution tarball it's also exactly the same as loaddefs.el.) But
that's not really a problem.

Agreed. Jérôme Marant pointed out that including ldefs-boot.el allows
a "make maintainer-clean" and then a ".configure" plus "make
bootstrap" on an unpacked distribution tarball. I think that's a nice
feature.
