The ztools/zmqapi tool generates the 4.2 docs from libzmq master (see
apiall script below). The generation tool checks out specific
repos/tags for each release, so you can easily set it to generate
4.2.0 from a tagged release.

Relevant piece from apiall:

#               Directory        Tag      Category
$TOOLDIR/apione ../../zeromq3-x  master   3-2
$TOOLDIR/apione ../../zeromq4-x  master   4-0
$TOOLDIR/apione ../../zeromq4-1  master   4-1
$TOOLDIR/apione ../../libzmq     master   4-2
