The 'dolist' has existed long before subr.el::dolist was written. Code
that uses dolist may expect "standard" CL behavior of, because that is
what has been previously available in Emacs.

I do not find it appropriate to close the bug report, because the
problem still exists:

	There are two definitions of dolist, which are not compatible
	in current Emacs
