1) The HS page on prog2 says:

prog2 evaluates first-form, then
second-form, and then forms,
yielding as its only value the primary
value yielded by first-form.

Is the last word meant to be "second-form"
instead of "first-form" ?

Yes; the Syntax and Arguments and Values sections get it right though.

2) Is (prog2 form1 form*) the same as
(progn form1 (prog1 form*)) ?

Yes.
