This sentence will be gone in next manpages version. In case of such 
trivial and obvious bugs in manpages I recommend to report it to manpages 
maintainer - "Michael Kerrisk" <mtk-manpages@gmx.net>. I already reported 
this problem myself.

Linux have been quite long time without manpages maintainer and there is a 
lot of such stupid things. This particular manpage was just probably 
written when 2.4 didn't exist yet and this sentence in BUGS section made 
sense.
