confusing language in manual re GNUMAKEFLAGS

I think this little nit should be cleared up. In one place the manual says:

... after parsing GNUMAKEFLAGS GNU make sets this variable to the empty string ...

But in another place it says:

GNU make never sets this variable itself.

The meaning is clear (to me) but the language is not well formed.
