How about?

+     <para>
+      The linked page uses "permissions" while we consistently use the synonym
+      "privileges", to describe the contents of the list. For avoidance of
+      doubt and clarity, these two terms are equivalent in the
+      <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> documentation.
+     </para>
