I'm using Emacs 28 from git master.

Excerpt from EIEIO entry in Info Directory:
> Sometimes it is useful to keep a master list of all instances of a

At the moment, eieio-instance-tracker is defined in eieio-base with slot
named

> TRACKING-SYMBOL

not

> TRACKER-SYMBOL

EIEIO entry in Info Directory should thus be patched to refer to slot's
actual name `tracking-symbol'. These are the only two mentions of the
slot in eieio.info.bz2

This would be easy enough to fix -- we're doing documentation fixes on
the 27 branch, right?
