No, the description constructed by describe-function-1 does. Previous to
this patch things looked like this:
`loop' is an autoloaded Lisp macro
-- autoloads from "cl-macs"
-- loaded from "/usr/local/share/xemacs-21.5-b28/lisp/cl-macs.elc"
Documentation:
(loop CLAUSE...): The Common Lisp `loop' macro.
[...]
Now we have this:
`loop' is an autoloaded Lisp macro
-- loaded from "/usr/local/share/xemacs-21.5-b28/lisp/cl-macs.elc"
Documentation:
(loop CLAUSE...): The Common Lisp `loop' macro.
[...]

It doesn’t redundantly say where the symbol is loaded from twice.
