Thanks for mentioning the problem. I think the code is right here and
the documentation is wrong, so I installed the attached instead.

The git history says that the requirement is 1.4.8 or newer:

There's a subtlety here. 1.4.8 is sufficient for general usage of Autoconf, as described in that commit, but may not be sufficient to *bootstrap* Autoconf itself. (I don't know of any concrete reason it *wouldn't* work, but I do know it hasn't been tested thoroughly.)
