documentation error: wrong command |

Hi,
I found an error in the info page for version 8.31.
As linked below, in the join(1) documentation, the 3rd line is
sort file1 file1 file2 | uniq
but should be
sort file1 file1 file2 | uniq -u
I wonder, why no one noticed, or bothered to report it.
Anyway, great documentation! This section is mind opening.
