The ~/.emacs.d/auto-save-list/ directory is used for the `.saves-*' files
where Emacs saves session information (used by "M-x recover-session").
(See startup.el:auto-save-list-file-prefix.)
These are not the normal auto-save files, but they do resemble them
because Emacs saves session info periodically, like it does with
auto-saving. Perhaps the problem was with those files, not with autosave
files.
I looked at that code. If Emacs can't open that file,
it simply does not write that file. It does not retry.
