I've added the following:

   # As with 'width', percentage values of 'flex-basis' are resolved against
   # the flex item's containing block, i.e. its flex container.
   # And <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visudet.html#propdef-width">as with 'width'</a> in [[!CSS21]],
   # if that containing block's size is indefinite, the result is undefined.

Let me know if this addresses your comment.
