It's better now, thanks for committing the fix. But I'm still not sure
about the current behavior.

After "make bootstrap", run "emacs -Q" and evaluate the below recipe
in the *scratch* buffer:

cl--derived-type-list
=> nil

(require 'cl-lib)
=> cl-lib

cl--derived-type-list
=> nil

(require 'cl-macs)
=> cl-macs

cl--derived-type-list
=> (real command keyword extended-char base-char character natnum)

So, to create the predefined derived types, it seems that cl-macs
needs to be explicitly loaded. I wonder if this is the expected
behavior?

David
