No, thats not true either. Please read the documents carefully. They
note that ESP protocols can provide both confidentiality and
integrity. The documents provide for the possibility that one might
want to combine AH and ESP -- they do *NOT* force you to combine
them. The "DES-MD5" document is forthcoming -- its just a mechanical
transformation of the DES document.
