Section 4.5.4 says:
On unnumbered interfaces on point-to-point links, the router's address should be the same as the source address it chose for the Hello message it sent over that interface. However, on point-to- point links we also recommend that PIM Join/Prune messages with an upstream neighbor address field of all zeros are also accepted.
It should say:
On unnumbered interfaces on point-to-point links, the router's address SHOULD be the same as the source address it chose for the Hello message it sent over that interface. However, on point-to- point links we also RECOMMEND that PIM Join/Prune messages with an upstream neighbor address field of all zeros are also accepted.
