With prefix argument ARG, truncate long lines if ARG is positive, otherwise don't truncate them...." The first sentence is incorrect. What it says is that the function toggles whether to fold-or-truncate, that is, it turns folding-or-truncating alternately on and off (whatever that might mean). That's not what it does. What it does is what the doc string used to say it does, prior to Emacs 22: it _toggles truncating_. Do not try to say, in the same sentence, that turning off truncating means turning on folding. Say that separately. What the doc string should say: "Toggle truncating of long lines for the current buffer. When truncating is off, long lines are folded. With prefix argument ARG, truncate long lines if ARG is positive, otherwise fold them...."
