Could you please provide an example how it confuses Emacs? The autoload
cookie is defined as it is by intention (except that the
interactive-mark (fourth argument to autoload) is missing), i.e. the
function and the cookie are defined in evil-core.el but the file to be
loaded is evil.el. I'm using package.el and I did not observe any
problems with that. The autoload file `evil-autoload.el' is generated
and used correctly.

Sure, because evil.el has to be loaded.
