I think burning in a modern stove burns those compounds. The warnings are for open campfires where some of those can be released.
I do have the impression that he just listed a bunch of trees that do contain toxic compounds and the assumes they survive a fire.

I burn plenty of black walnut in my stove. Burned plenty of some of the others in brush piles and I'm still here, I'm sure I've breathed some of the smoke. I'm more concerned with what I'm breathing from air pollution I can't control along with the junk in my water. My neighbors burn their trash with soda bottle and baby diapers and all of the other junk in it.
