Fixed, thanks.

Apparently, it is a consequence of this change (a good 16,5 years ago):

1991-04-10  Brian Preble  (rassilon@gnu.ai.mit.edu)

        * modula2.el, mouse.el, mpuz.el, nntp.el, options.el: Doc fix.
        * oshell.el, page-ext.el, page.el, paragraphs.el, picture.el: Doc fix.

In the docstring, "sentence-end" and "sentence-beginning" are used to
mean "end of sentence" and "start of sentence", but seems like Brian
Preble mistook them for commands.

It *is* vital (http://wordnet.princeton.edu/perl/webwn?s=vital), "full
of life". The bugger has been in hiding while many others succumbed...
