In Emacs 28.1, when find-file-visit-truename, a user option, is non-nil, make-directory-autoloads resolves symlinks in its second argument (as it uses find-file-noselect under the hood) but not in its first. This results in relative paths that are invalid when loaded.
Although this should be fixed in upstream, as Emacs 28.1 is already released and a theoretical upstream fix would only come after an undetermined amount of time, a workaround like this should still be valuable.
