Those instructions imply that you're downloading a full new set of
sources from the zsh upstream.  If you just want to apply a single
patch, you can just create a branch, patch the source on that branch,
compile, and test the resulting binary.  Obviously some patches won't
apply if you don't have the upstream source, but in this case the
change is small and isolated, so patching should not present an issue
... you could even make the edit by hand.
