(doc some) says:
"... this will return true if :fred is in the sequence, otherwise nil:
(some #{:fred} coll)"
However, some returns the matching value instead:
=> (some #{:fred} [:foo :fred :ethel])
:fred
Attached patch fixes the docstring. (Not that applying the patch would
be any easier than fixing it by hand :-)
