Yes, I think this is no longer a problem now that we no longer use
“guix.d”.

The “emacs-ess” package does not behave like all other Emacs packages.
Its files are installed to “$out/share/emacs/site-lisp/ess” (not
“guix.d”) and there are no autoloads.

I don’t know how to get ESS to work like this.  Should the package be
changed such that it installs autoload files like all other packages?
