For GnuPG 1 I've tried to maintain a "minimal patches" policy. Patches
have a cost, is my experience in a package that I got which had about 50
patches for bugs of wide variety, indeed, quite a few also for such
documentation typos as above.

Given that upstream is normally very responsive and receptive to fix such
issues, I don't see much need to patch non-critical issues in Debian
locally. This issue in particular should of course be fixed upstream but I
think it has near zero impact on the usability of GnuPG in Debian, so it
can easily wait to be fixed when we import the next upstream, no?
