Thank-you for the report and the patch! This has been fixed in Cauldron in net-tools-1.60-37.mga4.

I'll let the QA team make the call as to whether these two fixed sentences are sufficiently significant to warrant the effort to back-port the fix to mga 2 & 3.

It's not really our decision Dan but thankyou for asking. 
If you want to do so, please do :)
Comment 4 Dan Fandrich 2013-07-23 08:29:09 CEST
In my opinion, those two corrupted sentences don't detract significantly from the definition of the options they're documenting. The main purpose is made sufficiently clear from the preceding sentences, so I don't believe the effort in making and testing an update is warranted for that minor change. I'm closing this bug as fixed.
