Note that similar code is written in other places. E.g.
java.util.stream.Stream#collect(supplier, accumulator, combiner) -- combiner is not mentioned


R result = supplier.get();
for (T element : this stream)
  accumulator.accept(result, element);
return result;


The same for IntStream, LongStream, and DoubleStream.collect.

In fact, I'm not sure that this worth fixing.
