Currently, we have ada-mode 4.01 in the installed emacs, and 5.1.6 in
ELPA.
One user just noticed that the autoloads for 4.01 are still present when
the ELPA package is installed. This is not a huge problem, but it does
confuse things when upgrading; old keybindings appear to work, but
should be changed, etc.
This will also be a problem for future bundled ELPA packages, when a new
version is installed from ELPA.
I'm not clear what the right solution is for ada-mode 4.01 now; perhaps
just living with it.
For future bundled ELPA packages, some way to _not_ load the autoloads
for the bundled packages if a newer version is installed should be
provided.
