function list* doesn't return a list, because it uses 'cons' under the hood:

(list? (list* 1 2 3 '()))
;=> false

(class (list* 1 2 3 '()))
;=> clojure.lang.Cons

...however, its docstring says: "Creates a new list containing the items 
prepended to the rest, the last of which will be treated as a sequence."

I think that this can be pretty confusing... Shouldn't it be fixed (at 
least the docstring)?


Cheers,
Marek.
