I think it's merely due to the old texinfo version that comes with
MinGW.

Did you try these commands:

>>  grep UP configure
>>  grep DOWN configure

The patch changes a comment in the configure script:
  # Check whether --enable-DOWN was given.
to
  # Check whether --enable-bdf was given.

So it's rather cosmetic.
