Note: commit 32051c2 is not in my git tree...
Note: tried from commit emacs-26.2: same result
Note: tried from last commit in master (68f086): same result
Typo: you've certainly corrected by yourself, but it is actually auto-save-list that is created under .emacs.d, not auto-save-list-file-prefix

Objet: Re: bug#37116: 26.1; User choice user-emacs-directory is not honored
Added (manually) to commit tagged emacs-26.1.92, in defcustom auto-save-list-file-prefix':
:initialize 'custom-initialize-delay
Done same tests with auto-save configuration commented out in "please-do-it.el".
- The directory .emacs.d is created
- It is populated with a directory auto-save-list-file-prefix
Checked that emacs is actually the one I've just build: it is.
Also checked that /usr/share/emacs/26.1.92/lisp/startup.el* are up to date: they are, though sibling .el are not affected except subdirs.el.
Thus, no, it does not seem to work.
Shall I try from another commit ?

Does the patch below solve your problem?
