I noticed this in the sched_ule(4) man page as well.  ULE is said to
be experimental and refers the reader to a non-existent BUGS section
(removed before RELENG_7 was created).  The commit log also states
that "ULE is no longer buggy or experimental", so at the very least,
the man page is slightly inconsistent with itself and its last commit
log.
