I added a more accurate sentence there:

    "Create an image from FILE-OR-DATA.
  FILE-OR-DATA is an image file name or image data.  If it is a relative
  file name, the function will look for it along `image-load-path'.

But I failed to remove the one you mention, which is somewhat
misleading.  Now done.
