That the code does
(let ((generated-autoload-file ..))
...
(make-local-variable 'generated-autoload-file)
...)
tho most likely the two different parts aren't in the same function,
of course. This is not clearly wrong, but the semantics are delicate
and I'm not sure they are always implemented correctly (and if they
are, that probably requires extra care and extra code, maybe even in
the 99.9% of the cases where this doesn't happen).
