+ * emacs-lisp/advice.el: Use new dynamic docstrings.
+ (ad-make-advised-definition-docstring, ad-advised-definition-p):
+ Use dynamic-docstring-function instead of ad-advice-info.
+ (ad--make-advised-docstring): New function extracted from
+ ad-make-advised-docstring.
+ (ad-make-advised-docstring): Use it.
+ * progmodes/sql.el (sql--make-help-docstring): New function, extracted
+ from sql-help.
+ (sql-help): Use it with dynamic-docstring-function.
+
* env.el (env--substitute-vars-regexp): Don't use rx (for bootstrap).
