    Anyway, I think it should be possible to bootstrap from source.
    I'd propose to leave ldefs-boot.el in the tarball but to prevent
    lisp/Makefile to install it.

That might be ok, but I have one question.
Suppose lisp/Makefile did install it--would any real harm result?

If not, it would be cleaner not to put anything special for
this file into lisp/Makefile.
