I agree that it's an artifact, but as Girish points out, it was indeed
documented (in privileges(5)).  But I see no issue with removing that
verbiage in the documentation and broadening the phrasing -- e.g.:

     PRIV_SYS_IP_CONFIG

         Allow a process to configure a system's IP interfaces and
         routes. Allow a process to configure TCP/IP parameters.  Allow a
         process to pop anchored STREAMS modules with matching zoneid.
