non blocking ssl connections with NSS

I see a commit here
<https://github.com/curl/curl/commit/8868a226cdad66a9a07d6e3f168884817592a1df>
that,
seems to me, implements non blocking SSL handshaking for NSS.

But, on this page <https://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-multi.htm>, under
"Blocking" section, it says:

A few areas in the code are still using blocking code..

- NSS SSL connections

I was thinking of migrating from OpenSSL to NSS, and this document was
preventing me from building libcurl with NSS.

Is the document outdated, or am I misunderstanding the intention of the
commit?
