Possible typo in the documentaion

Possible typo in the documentaion

On this page:

Is it correct, that it says:

This function is the handy way to add "function function" (?) to hook variable hook.

Maybe 1 word "function" is redundant? And it should be:

This function is the handy way to add a function to hook variable hook.

It's a "bug" in http://www.gnu.org/layout.css:

blockquote{ margin: 1em; font-style: italic; }

That prevents <var> from distinguishing the second word.  In Info it says

This function is the handy way to add function FUNCTION to hook variable
HOOK.

which makes it clear(er) that it's "the function referred to by the
argument named 'function'" (and similarly for hook).
