I'll bet its a typo :-)

It is the same....but different. Allen's original attempts at creating
a cell animation look were shown at Siggraph. The algorithm has the
big problem however of creating jagged outlines with no means for anti-
aliasing. However, while at Siggraph, Allen got an idea for a new version
from one of the presnted papers. The new version is not simply a post
processing task, and allows for fully antialiased edges. The hidden
trick you found on your release is an early experimantal version of
the new algorithm. Look for a finished version some time in the future.
