bug: deny_password_attempts* seems broken

Using deny_password_attempts as an example, it says:
Add the following lines immediately below the|pam_unix.so|statement
in|AUTH|section of|/etc/pam.d/system-auth|:
|auth [default=die] pam_faillock.so authfail deny=3 unlock_time=604800 fail_interval=900|
|auth required pam_faillock.so authsucc deny=3 unlock_time=604800 fail_interval=900|
-----------
Looking at input/checks/accounts_passwords_pam_faillock_deny.xml ,
accounts_passwords_pam_faillock_deny seems to test for the bottom line
in /etc/pam.d/system-auth and the top line in /etc/pam.d/password-auth,
but password-auth is not mentioned in the deny_password_attempts
description.
For the other two deny_password_attempts tests, it's a similar
situation. Is the test wrong or the description wrong?
Thanks,
Paul
