Fixed.

This will happen as soon as Bert updates the bibliographic database for 
the spec generator.  I've emailed him to let him know.

I don't see why this is a problem.  Technically both null and undefined 
are handled by the IDL, but stating it implicitly in the prose makes it 
clearer.   I haven't made this change yet, because I want to avoid 
making non-editorial changes at this stage. But feel free to convince me 
during this next LC period.
