Hello,

if you evaluate the following sexp in Emacs -Q, you get an infinitive
loop:

(progn
  (require 'cl)
  (select-window (minibuffer-window))
  (loop for win being the windows do 'nothing))

This should be fixed.


Moreover, the "CL" info manual should be clarified here:
  (cl)Top > Control Structure > Loop Facility > For Clauses

For looping over "the windows", it only says:

`for VAR being the windows [of FRAME]'
     This clause iterates over the windows (in the Emacs sense) of the
     current frame, or of the specified FRAME.

It's not clear if/when the minibuffer window is included and in which
order the iteration is done.
