The corrupted loaddefs.el file seems to be the right size, but the last
768 bytes are zero instead of the expected content.

To debug this I have tried extracting the command from the autoload target
in lisp/Makefile and running that standalone. This results in repeatably
building a corrutp loaddefs.el (if it is deleted before each run).

Running that command using "bootstrap-emacs -Q" (i.e. interactively)
shows that the *autoload-file* buffer contains the 768 zero characters
at end, so it appears that the corruption occurs before the buffer is
written to disk.

Any hints on how to debug `batch-update-autoloads' to diagnose this
further would be welcome.
