Package: emacs
Version: 24.2.50

(The inverse of http://debbugs.gnu.org/12773 )

It seems to me that cl-loop-handler, cl-loop-for-handler should not have
been renamed to cl--loop-handler and cl--loop-for-handler.
They are advertised methods to customize the `cl-loop', rather than
internal details..

From cl.texi in 24.2:

    4.7.6 Other Clauses:
    [...]
       While there is no high-level way to add user extensions to
    `loop', this package does offer two properties called
    `cl-loop-handler' and `cl-loop-for-handler' which are functions to
    be called when a given symbol is encountered as a top-level loop
    clause or `for' clause, respectively. Consult the source code in
    file `cl-macs.el' for details.
