I think the question of variable types belongs to the spec, but here in Object class's javadoc we should speak about objects. So I now suggest: "...and that the returned object of the {...@code clone} method of an array object of class {...@code T[]} is of class {...@code T[]} where T is any [raw]? reference or primitive class. See java language specification version 3, section 6.4.5"
And additionally 2 cents: As T is often used for parameter type in context with generics, I think, X would leed to less misinterpretation and would match better to the according spec.
