But it's a new feature, right? Emacs 23.3 doesn't seem to do that.
If it's new, I think it should be mentioned in NEWS; it is an important
change for anyone creating Emacs packages, since I now have to make sure
that `load-path' during autoload-generation and during actual usage of
the package is consistent.
