Depends on how you defined "standard". To me, the standard is the
source, which is the ASN1 module, and that one had better be trustable
:-). A faulty footnote isn't quite at the same level, even in an
authoritative document.
Besides, the PKCS#1 v2.1 document is a draft (with more blatant
faults. Have you read the editor's note at the beginning? :-)), and
I assume that things like this will be corrected before it becomes the
new standard document. If you feel up to it, you might consider
reporting the error back to RSA.
