Re: functions from cl package called at runtime

[Eric Schulte <eric.schulte@gmx.com>]

Thanks for catching this, I've just pushed up a fix.

Is there a convention for which macros from cl-macs are allowable and
which are forbidden?  For example `flet' is used extensively throughout
the Org-mode code base.  Is the convention that macros are allowable
while functions are not?

Also, while intersection below is a function defined in cl-seq, the use
of `intersection' in ob.el refers to a local function and not the cl-seq
function, so it should be fine.

Thanks,
