Hmm... cl-defmethod should cause cl-lib to be loaded (cl-generic is
preloaded, after all).

Usually we consider it a bug if "emacs -Q" (or "emacs -nw -Q") needs to
load a package, tho we tend not to apply that rule to lisp/term/*.el.

In any case, the fact that "emacs -Q -nw" loads cl-lib is not intended
and I think it'd be good to track down why it does and if/how we can fix it.
