FUN) onto the load history, we add the autoload data to the `autoload' symbol property. - Instead of using Vautoload_queue, we rely on the `autoload' symbol property and the load-history in un_autoload (which is also used by Frequire). I have nothing against it, assuming it works correctly, but it does not seem like a change worth spending any time on. It would be better to implement a feature that will actually benefit users.
