I would argue that it is a mistake, just a mistake made when they authored the broken specification.
I suspect that when they wrote that, they meant to allow the zeroing behavior defined in the CSS spec, not for readers to just ignore "auto". But as usual, if you give them an inch....
The good news is that I'm not seeing that text in EPUB 3, so perhaps someday soon, we'll be rid of that brain damage.
