Why?

The "cl-" prefix is for global vars.  It used to be used "everywhere"
for local vars as well because dynamic binding made the local vars
visible in other scopes as well, but nowadays that CL uses
lexical-binding this should not be needed any more and the tendency is
rather to eliminate use of the "cl-" prefix for args and local vars.

         Stefan
Apparently the functions surrounding cl-fill use cl- prefix. so the
change appear to be more cosmetic than technical.

I confirm Leo explanation is 100% is right about my intentions.
I am sorry for the troubles.
