Don't have an opinion on those two. They might fit in gv.el.

This one could indeed move to generator.el, tho it currently uses the
internal cl--transform-lambda, so the implementation would need to be
rewoked to avoid having an external package depend on CL's internals.

This belongs right next to cl-flet, so moving it out of cl-lib would
make no sense.

This belongs right next to cl-letf.

These are intimately linked to cl-lib's implementation, AFAIK.

Same here. IOW they belong to cl-lib not because they're part of
Common-Lisp, but because they belong to cl-lib's implementation.

I don't have a strong opinion on this. The issue is the following:
cl-struct-define is "used internally by cl-defstruct", but it can't be
changed at will, because it will basically have to be preserved for as
long as Emacs-NN.MM wants to be able to run .elc files generated with
Emacs-24.5.
Those "functions only used in a macro's expansion" have a half-way
"internal" status in this respect, and we sometimes give them
a "prefix-" and sometimes a "prefix--".
