Documentation is exactly that: Documentation.
Do not EVER use that in a real box.
If you need 'RFC1918 alike' space then go for ULA (RFC4193).
Also see http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/ula/ for a semi-registered
version of that. If you want "guaranteed unique" then go to a RIR.

Google goes straight through that suit, I suggest you use it and read up
on IPv6. Even the Wikipedia entry contains this information.
google(rfc1918 ipv6) or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_network
