Sort of. They say only if it's a single line that it's not allowed. If there are multiple lines it's "permitted."
So technically, this is still OK, but they are allowed to use braces when there are multiple lines. (the if and the return) They have an example in that link that covers this as a permitted case, but as you say, it's OK and consistent, but that doesn't make it good :)

This is OpenBSD Kernel Normal Form (http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=style&sektion=9).
Disagree you may, but it's consistent with their self-imposed guidelines.
