My recollection (unsubstantiated) is that what they mean by this statement is that the buyers limit is unaffected by the gift since he/she will not actually be owning the bonds. I do believe that the receiver's limit is affected by the gift. (This is unsubstantiated. I will attempt to substantiate.)
