Hello,

background: to get rid of warnings about the recently obsoleted
generalized variables in my init file... because I'm lazy and wanted to
try (and there were only two) I blindly replaced them with synthetic
places - like this:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun test1 (b query)
  (cl-letf (((buffer-local-value 'buffer-save-without-query b)
             (or buffer-save-without-query query)))
    (with-current-buffer b (save-buffer))))
;; ~~>
(defun test2 (b query)
  (cl-letf (((gv-synthetic-place
              (buffer-local-value 'buffer-save-without-query b)
              (lambda (v) `(setq-local buffer-save-without-query ,v)))
             (or buffer-save-without-query query)))
    (with-current-buffer b (save-buffer))))
#+end_src

[ I know it is an nonsense example wrt what it does and how it does it,
that doesn't matter. ]

This should get rid of the warning - but in this case it doesn't (in
the other it did).  The reason is that Stefan made cl-letf (the helper
cl--letf more precisely), macroexpand each place:

| 91a7f934ac * lisp/emacs-lisp/cl-macs.el: Fix bug#26073.

to support symbol macros better:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun cl--letf (bindings simplebinds binds body)
  ;; It's not quite clear what the semantics of cl-letf should be...10..
  (if (null bindings)
      (if (and (null binds) (null simplebinds)) (macroexp-progn body)..20..)
    (let* ((binding (car bindings))
           (place (macroexpand (car binding) macroexpand-all-environment)));<--!!
      (gv-letplace (getter setter) place..12..))))
#+end_src

I think this is an error in the general case.  Maybe it's enough to
expand only symbol macros?  It's at least always wrong when (car PLACE)
is a macro name with a gv spec defined.

TIA,

Michael.
