Subject: bug#12119: 24.1.50; symbol-macrolet regresssion
Date: Thu, 02 Aug 2012 15:13:03 +0200

In Emacs 24, bzr revno 109393, this file

(require 'cl)

(defun foo ()
  (let ((outer '42))
    (symbol-macrolet ((x outer))
      (let ((x 'inner))
	(assert (eq x 'inner))))))

(foo)

when executed with:  emacs -Q -batch -l symbol-macrolet.el 
produces:  Assertion failed: (eq x (quote inner))

With Emacs 22 the assertions doesn't fail.

Also, in Emacs 22 the macroepansion (via cl-macroexpand-all) 
produces something like

(let ((outer '42))
  (let ((outer 'inner))
    (progn
      (or
       (eq outer 'inner)
       (signal 'cl-assertion-failed
               (list
                '(eq x 'inner))))
      nil)))

while in Emacs 24 it looks like 

(let ((outer '42))
  (progn
    (let ((x 'inner))
      (progn
	(or
	 (eq outer 'inner)
	 (signal 'cl-assertion-failed
		 (list
		  '(eq x 'inner))))
	nil))))

Such a change should be documented.
