That's true, but the sample configurations in the OP's link did not show
this. They clearly used the term "master" to refer to authoritative
servers, and "secondary" in the obsolete sense of slave servers. So in
the section where it showed how to configure a "secondary master", all
it showed was how to configure an ordinary slave -- nothing to do with
turning that slave into a replacement master.
