If you read the documentation for truncate-lines, you will find the
following paragraph:
Note that this is overridden by the variable
`truncate-partial-width-windows' if that variable is non-nil
and this buffer is not full-frame width.
If that is not good enough -- perhaps you did not realize that
splitting with C-x 3 results in "buffers not full-frame width" -- then
I hope you will file a bug report. Just use M-x report-emacs-bug and
explain the problem. Bugs in the documentation are just that: Bugs.
And we need people to spot these, too. :)
Alex.
