I guess this will have the effect of scanning every file for an
autoload while bootstrapping, which is inefficient but not important.

IIUC, if I happen to delete just calc-loaddefs.el and then run `make
autoloads', it won't be recreated. I don't have a better solution
though...

(I guess the autoload time-stamp check is to reduce the number of
files that need to be read, and checking for a local value of
generated-autoload-file would defeat that?)
