I like it. Patch installed, using that wording.
Empirically, the list archives document 4.2.x and 4.3.2 as broken:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2007-04/msg00086.html
Cygwin ships with zsh 4.3.4 which works. Therefore, I changed 4.X.Y to 4.3.4
(it wasn't worth my hassle of looking up whether 4.3.3 was also broken).
