It is documented, although admittedly not in a very prominent place. 
Quoting readme.txt:

   If you have ImageMagick++ on your system, Cuneiform autodetects and
   builds against it. Then Cuneiform can process any image that
   ImageMagick knows how to open.

Don't do that then! :)

As far as I can tell, currently all the pages are rendered and loaded to 
memory (if they fit, which is usually not the case) but only the first 
one is actually OCRed.
