Bug in documentation about adaptive scoring?

[Sebastian D.B. Krause]

In the documentation about adaptive scoring I can find the following
information:

,----
|    The headers you can score on are `from', `subject', `message-id',
| `references', `xref', `lines', `chars' and `date'.  In addition, you
| can score on `followup', which will create an adaptive score entry that
| matches on the `References' header using the `Message-ID' of the
| current article, thereby matching the following thread.
| 
|    You can also score on `thread', which will try to score all articles
| that appear in a thread.  `thread' matches uses a `Message-ID' to match
| on the `References' header of the article.  If the match is made, the
| `Message-ID' of the article is added to the `thread' rule.  (Think
| about it.  I'd recommend two aspirins afterwards.)
`----

This is working well and based on the first paragraph:

,----
| (setq gnus-default-adaptive-score-alist
|       '((gnus-killed-mark (from -1) (followup -10))))
`----

But I can't get the scoring on `thread' working, e.g. with the
following code:

,----
| (setq gnus-default-adaptive-score-alist
|       '((gnus-killed-mark (from -1) (followup -10) (thread -10))))
`----

When I exit the summary buffer, I get this error:

,----
| gnus-score-adaptive: Symbol's function definition is void: thread
`----

Is this a bug in the documentation of Gnus and `thread' doesn't
exist at all or am I doing something completely wrong with my
configuration? (I hope it's the last because `thread' could be very
useful... :))

You can't do adaptive scoring on `thread'; only on the "normal"
headers.

So ... what do those lines in the documentation try to tell me?

They were trying to talk about normal scoring, I think.
