Hi,
The same paragraph followed in catalogs.sgml.
A patch that removes it.

Hmm, the dup para as well as the one after it were inserted by
aa087ec64, and they both look out of place there. I think we
need to do more than just delete the dup; the other one needs
to be moved to the pg_statistic_ext_data section (and then
reworded a bit). Will fix, thanks for the report!
regards, tom lane
