The documentation of 'ets:info/1' reads:
info(Tab) -> tuple() | undefined
while it should probably read:
info(Tab) -> [tuple()] | undefined
This causes confusion in other parts of Erlang/OTP.
For example, in 'snmpa_general_db', there is code which reads:
info({ets, Name, _}) ->
case ets:info(Name) of
T when tuple(T) ->
tuple_to_list(T);
L ->
L
end.
Another discrepancy discovered by Dialyzer...
