I suspect that most of its users have moved to evil.

And/or users could easily have something else in their config which
happens to require cl-lib.

I suggest moving it to lisp/obsolete in Emacs, and copying it to GNU
ELPA for its future life.

Indeed, that's also a very good explanation (cl-lib is required in so
many places nowadays that it's very likely to be loaded in almost all
sessions).

I think this would be encouraging people to move to Evil. While I think
it's generally a good idea, I think I'd be happier with this idea if
there were a more active cooperation between Evil's maintainers and
Emacs's maintainers (e.g. some plan to try and add Evil to GNU ELPA and
bundle it in Emacs's tarball).

Let's try to get Evil into ELPA. But unless/until we succeed
in doing that, Viper must be what we support and recommend.
We cannot consider it obsolete.
