We aren't going to fix the FC5 release notes after all this period. It provides the gist of the information that is required to understand what's going on and change the configuration if required. That should serve the purpose.
I am not faulting your language abilities. It is probably better than mine.You provided the reference. I corrected the information referenced. By the way, it is unfortunate that the FC5 release note is the only place where this is documented. I find no correction in any Fedora Core on-line documentation regarding the change in behavior. It certainly did not make it's way into the FC6 release notes. If the change did not make it into the documentation of following distribution and the FC5 on-line release notes were not updated how do end-users get informed?
