@@ -836,7 +836,7 @@ The C<av_store> function, when given a tied array argument, merely
copies the magic of the array onto the value to be "stored", using
C<mg_copy>. It may also return NULL, indicating that the value did not
actually need to be stored in the array. After a call to C<av_store> on
-a tied array, the caller will usually need to call C<mg_get(val)> to
+a tied array, the caller will usually need to call C<mg_set(val)> to
actually invoke the perl level "STORE" method on the TIEARRAY object. If
C<av_store> did return NULL, a call to C<SvREFCNT_dec(val)> will also be
usually necessary to avoid a memory leak.
