Right, the interaction with `let` is not documented, but some packages
may still rely on it.  What this means is that fixing bug#26073 for
Emacs-26 may require introducing a second cl-symbol-macrolet so as not
to risk breaking packages using the old semantics.

I think for `master` it's OK to just change cl-symbol-macrolet (and risk
breaking other packages).
