To answer my own question, maybe...
I've just looked through another recent acquisition (Y. G. Leekun,
"Blue Book: How to Play Mah Jong: Standard Rules", Victoria B.C., date
unknown but probably early 20s). It says:

  When the loose tiles are used up, they must be replaced from the end
  of the wall, and another stack added to fill the shortage. For each
  "Kong" exposed during a game, one stack is added to the six stacks.
  If no player wins before all the tiles (excluding the six stacks and
  loose tiles) are used up, [...]

How's that for a nice self-contradictory description!
