Subject: bug#6750: Byte compiler: spurious message "cl used at runtime"

In-Reply-To: <20100729190306.GA2459@muc.de> (Alan Mackenzie's message of "Thu,  29 Jul 2010 19:03:06 +0000")

Except that this is not the reason I put the warning, but the reason why
the byte-compiler's code thinks the warning is warranted.
The byte-compiler is fairly stupid and doesn't know that this macro is
not intended to be used at runtime.

I agree it's not great, and it leads to "spurious" warnings like that.
Suggestions (and patches even better) welcome to try and resolve
the problem.
