(when 1) evaluates to 1, rather than nil, on latest master. This is
contrary to the documentation, which reads:

When COND yields non-nil, eval BODY forms sequentially and return
value of last one, or nil if there are none.

According to some discussion on IRC (thanks thuna`), this seems to have
been introduced here:

>> (when 1) evaluates to 1, rather than nil

Very sorry about that; now fixed. Thank you for reporting it!

(I haven't had much Emacs time lately and am clearly building up a backlog but this was clearly my fault and quickly remedied.)
