Yes it does.

Here's the *full* paragraph to which you refer:
---------- 8< ----------
The <LF> and soft <CR> characters (character codes 10 and 141
respectively) should not be used within a control pragraph. If they
are, they should be disregarded by any program processing such a
message or copies thereof.
