    It seems to me that if you recover from an autosaved buffer, then the
    buffer modification flag should be set.

I agree.  And when I try it, that's what happens.

It is quite likely that the reason I can't reproduce this bug is that
you have not told me very much about how to try.  Every bug report
needs to have a *precise* test case.  That means a precise sequence of
characters to type after starting Emacs, to make the problem happen.

Please read the Bugs section in the Emacs 19 manual to see
guidelines on how to write a bug report so that the bug can be fixed.
