Existing customization of iswitchb-mode to non-nil will no longer be
respected following your change, so you might want to bring the rest of
this back:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-diffs/2014-03/msg00325.html
The whole point of this was to be re-usable the next time this was
needed, without hand-written autoloads; but whatever, I imagine you'll
say there won't be a next time.
(The reason this got more complicated was bugs in autoload generation.)

We'll see how many users scream when we start the pretest for 25.1.
I think it can be considered as one more step in the "progressive
removal of iswitchb":
- in 24.4 it is marked obsolete (and causes a corresponding `message'
when loading) but otherwise still works as before.
- in 25.1 it is still autoloaded as a function, but not as a variable or
custom setting.
- in 25.2/26.1 it might get fully obsoleted (i.e. not autoloaded at all
any more).

Well, yes, I think it was a mistake for me to accept moving iswitchb.el
to obsolete.
