wrong information in Inheritance-chapter?

Hi,

PostgreSQL 7.0 online documentation, chapter 9
(http://www.de.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.0/postgres/inherit.htm)

It says that *-notation works on SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE. But I have only
succeeded to use it on SELECT.

statements like:
DELETE FROM FOO*... , or:
UPDATE FOO*...

dont work:
ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "*"

Or am I doing it wrong..?
