This makes sense, and I’ve asked the question on how best to handle for el-get on Gihub. Meanwhile my original pull request has been merged, so for the moment at least el-get uses the ("compile" "autoloads" "info") workflow. You are correct that adding a make autoloads does work, I've used (and updated) compiled org-mode straight from the work tree for a few days now. If there is a better or more canonical way to do this, I'd be happy to change and work the changes back into el-get where I can.

What do you do to make that work? It sounds like an intriguing possibility.
