docs for MINRES, only for positive definite?

I've noticed that the docs for MINRES say that the operator and the
preconditioner must be POSITIVE DEFINITE. But I understand MINRES is
tailored for the symmetric/hermitian-indefinite case.

Are the docs wrong? Or the actual code is a (very peculiar) MINRES variant?
