Ok, I see RT.next(x) is called and the implementation is:

static public ISeq next(Object x){
    if(x instanceof ISeq)
        return ((ISeq) x).next();
    ISeq seq = seq(x);
    if(seq == null)
        return null;
    return seq.next();
}

1. if ISeq, return the next item in the sequence.
2. else, (seq coll)
I propose the docs should read something like this:

(next coll)
     :doc "If coll is not a seq, turn coll into a seq. Returns a seq
of the coll after the first item.
    If coll has no more items, returns nil."}
