It seems you were right.

"In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(25)SED or later, the switch supports
hierarchical virtual private LAN service (H-VPLS) architecture to
simulate LAN services over the MPLS network. The switch supports
H-VPLS using IEEE 802.1Q tunneling or Ethernet over multiprotocol
label switching (EoMPLS). "

So only useable as an u-PE.

Some would say the release notes are misleading.. partial H-VPLS
support would have been better.
