Sorry, the *syntax* is not inconsistent. The *docs* are inconsistent, I
believe. The first example says:
|// This implements an interface `iter_util` for vector types
impl iter_util<T> for [T] {
fn len() -> uint { std::vec::len(self) }
fn iter(f: block(T)) { for elt in self { f(elt); } }
fn map<U>(f: block(T) -> U) -> [U] {
let rslt = [];
for elt in self { rslt += [f(elt)]; }
rslt
}
}|
but this leading comment is incorrect.

If I write "impl foo for bar" does that define an impl
named `foo` with no interface, or an impl of the interface `foo`?
No interface.
In that case, I write "impl of foo for bar" to get an impl of
the interface `foo` named `foo` for the type `bar`?
Correct. How is this inconsistent? There's an optional `of` clause to
specify the interface. As an abbreviation, you can leave off the
proper name when you want to use the name of the interface (and you
specified one).
