No, without a @documentlanguage, the language is still unspecified.
The only difference in the generated HTML is that instead of an
empty lang (lang=""), one gets no lang at all. This apparently
allows one to provide the language via another way. The difference
currently matters for Firefox (for the font selection), but this
is not clear:

And perhaps Firefox will handle an absence of lang differently in
the future. Ditto for other browsers.

In any case, while @documentlanguage was previously unnecessary
for manuals in English (since lang="en" was generated by default),
this is no longer the case.
