I'm encountering some unexpected behavior in SBCL's extensible sequences implementation: https://plaster.tymoon.eu/view/4211#4211

1. The manual states that when initial-element and initial-contents are not provided to make-sequence-like, the resulting sequence's elements should be the same as the provided sequence's.

2. I guess I was surprised that make-array with no initial-element or initial-contents made an array of 0s, but I see the behavior depends on the implementation. Some make an array of NILs.

So anyway, I guess the question is: is the manual wrong, or is the code wrong?

I think it's possible that the documentation for make-sequence-like was copy-pasted from the adjust-sequence right above. The text is almost identical.

figured out how to remove 4mb of debug info from the cold core without losing any information
