   Does it mention "destructuring"? Any place where a single variable is 
   allowed, you can have a list of variables, and it will assign them from 
   the list of values.

It's mentioned specifically for ‘for’ VARs in (info "(cl) For Clauses")
so i suppose this is a doc bug (missing xref).  Or maybe the description
should be moved to "Loop Basics".  Anyway:

 (loop with (x y) = '(10 20) 
       for n upto 5 
       collect (cons (* n x) 
                     (* n y)))
 ((0 . 0)
  (10 . 20)
  (20 . 40)
  (30 . 60)
  (40 . 80)
  (50 . 100))

it works w/ ‘with’ as well as for ‘for’; i'm happy.  Thanks for the tip.
