The CL manual documents mapc accepting multiple sequences, but I always
get the built-in version. I was told about cl-mapc which appears not to
be documented in the manual. Actually, based on mapcar/mapcar* I
expected to find a function mapc* instead.

So what I'd like is to change the documentation in (cl) Mapping over
Sequences from mapc to mapc* and rename cl-mapc to mapc*.
