Same here. I had to change another thing. There is a changelog entry
from 2012, mentioning renaming bbdb-autoloads.el -> bbdb-loaddefs.el.
As it seems the bbdb package still comes with bbdb-autoloads.el, so I
added a (require 'bbdb-loaddefs) to my configuration.

Yesterday I started to jot down bits and bytes I know about bbdb and
wl. I think your work will be mentioned there.
