[boost] iterator adaptor docs -- bug in p.increment?

Hi,

I'm trying to use the iterator adaptor for the first time.  I must say
that I'm very impressed with the quality of the documentation, so I'm
unsure whether this is truly a bug in the docs or just a bug in my
understanding.

In the file libs/utility/iterator_adaptors.htm, the policies class
requirements table shows

    p.increment(x)    increments the iterator        ++p, p++ 
    p.decrement(x)    decrements the iterator        --x, x-- 

Shouldn't the first one be "++x, x++" to indicate that it implements
the increment of the adapted iterator type (rather than "p" == object
of policies type)?
