Looking closer at this I found that the loaddefs.el buffer above 
actually is empty in auto-load-find-destination. However file-exists-p 
return t and the file is not empty.

Could it be that file names are not case insensitive on w32 at the 
moment? The command line has and uppercase C for the drive letter:

   "./../bin/emacs.exe" -batch --no-init-file --no-site-file --multibyte 
-l autoloa
d \
                 --eval "(setq find-file-hook nil 
find-file-suppress-same-file-wa
rnings t)" \
                 -f w32-batch-update-autoloads 
"C:/eclean/bld/emacs/lisp/loaddefs
.el" . calc calendar emacs-lisp emulation erc eshell gnus international 
language
