Description:
The following two list items required me to read it twice to get it's meaning:

--------------------------------------------
You cannot set this up as a server or a master (no replication). 
You can't connect to the embedded server from an outside process with sockets or TCP/IP. 
--------------------------------------------

When I first read the first line I thought there was a mistake and the word 'server' should be the word 'slave' (and maybe it should be)

Then I thought it really was server and I was being informed that the library cannot act as a server (which is confusing in the current usage as it does not go with master)

Then I read the next line, which spells out that it cannot be a server.

So I think the word 'server' should actually be the word 'slave'.

How to repeat:
Look at documentation

Suggested fix:
Change the word or clarify the line. (IMHO ;)

Current URL for this would be: 

http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/libmysqld_restrictions.html

"19.1.15.3 Restrictions when using the Embedded MySQL Server"

The actual meaning is unclear, as noted.

Thank you for your bug report. This issue has been addressed in the
documentation. The updated documentation will appear on our website
shortly, and will be included in the next release of the relevant
product(s).

Additional info:

I've change the wording to "master or slave".
