@DeSeno: list*'s doc does indeed say that the last element will be treated as a seq, but the beginning of the same doc definitely says that list* returns a list. The doc is:
Creates a new list containing the items prepended to the rest, the last of which will be treated as a sequence. "The last of which will be treated as a sequence" refers to the items that the new list would contain. It's not a big deal, but the doc definitely doesn't match with what (list* ()) currently is. @MiltondSilva: Hmm...I don't understand how that explains this. It's true that lists are a type of sequence in of themselves. But there is a list that is empty—the empty list—and it is not equal to nil. I think (list* ()) should return (). (= (list* ()) nil) isn't the end of the world—getting around it was very easy—but it is puzzlingly inconsistent, and contradicts list*'s docs.
