The status is 'verified' -- that is, MySQL acknowledge that it is a
bug, but no fix has yet been committed.  '5.1+' identifies the versions
where the bug is /present/ -- that configuration option is perfectly
legal in 5.0 or below.  It's seen as a low priority documentation fix
so it's currently languishing somewhere at the back of the queue for 
available resources...
