This function is obsolete since 29.1; use ‘loaddefs-generate’ instead.

I fixed the doc string regardless; closing.

C-h f tells us:

 make-directory-autoloads is an autoloaded interactive Lisp function in
 'autoload.el'.

 (make-directory-autoloads DIR OUTPUT-FILE)

 Update autoload definitions for Lisp files in the directories DIRS.
                                                   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 DIR can be either a single directory or a list of
 directories.  (The latter usage is discouraged.)

Typo: DIRS is defined nowhere. Presumably DIRS should be DIR or each of
the DIR occurrences should be DIRS.  (Better yet, use a full word for
the argument.)
