It might very well be that I don't understand what you're trying to do,
but `eieio-defclass-autoload' is used the same way as the normal
`autoload': you either call it manually, or you use a magic autoload
comment in front of `defclass' and run the files through
`update-file-autoloads', so that those statements get generated for
you. Why doesn't that work in your case?
