What is the meaning of the double plus (++) instantiation mode in ECLiPSe Prolog?

A comprehensive list of Prolog instantiation modes is given in a previous question: Meaning of instantiation mode indicators in arguments of Prolog predicates.

However, I have not been able to find any reference to or explanation about the double plus (++) instantiation mode in ECLiPSe Prolog. An example predicate in the ECLiPSe docs that uses the '++' mode is setval(++,?).

Does anyone know what the meaning is of this mode?
