There's another sentence right before the code example:

/----
| To use this feature, you have to set @code{nnmail-treat-duplicates} and
| @code{nnmail-cache-accepted-message-ids} to a non-nil value.  And then
| you can include @code{nnmail-split-fancy-with-parent} using the colon
| feature, like so:
| @lisp
| (setq nnmail-split-fancy
|       '(| (: nnmail-split-fancy-with-parent)
|           ;; other splits go here
|         ))
| @end lisp
\----

Hm.  But if you missed it, it's not obvious enough.
