+;; HACK: This fixes an issue present in recent builds of Emacs 29. See
+;;   emacs-mirror/emacs@0d383b592c2f. Straight.el uses `loaddefs-generate' if it
+;;   is available, which activates `emacs-lisp-mode' to read autoloads files,
+;;   but does so without suppressing its hooks. Some packages (like overseer)
+;;   add hooks to `emacs-lisp-mode-hook' in their autoloads, and once triggered,
+;;   they will try to load their dependencies (like dash or pkg-info), causing
+;;   file errors.
+;; REVIEW: Report this upstream.
