In XHTML 1.0 documents, both lang (which derives from HTML) and xml:lang (which derives from XML) are needed (and can be used on any tag). hreflang only applies to specific tags (it's purpose is different, as it communicates the expected language of the content of therelated href).
However, you're probably right about revising this section. This content was created in 2006, when XHTML was still relevant. Nowadays HTML5 should probably be referenced and it only uses the lang attribute.

I believe XHTML is still relevant for authors creating eBooks for reading apps and tablets that rely on the ePub standard. See section 6 in https://www.w3.org/TR/epub-33.
