When did it switch from 0.4 to 4.0?
I feel like the user-facing quality of the software should not be
over-emphasized when it really is very beta in quality.

If the instructions were updated with fresh links/versions/etc, they
should work 100%.

No package needed, just apt-get the relevant packages?

doc/build-unix.txt is (though in some cases somewhat ubuntu-specific)
quite good IMHO.

If you are feeling lazy, I can convince jenkins.bluematt.me to churn out
windows and ubuntu builds almost identical to those that will come out
of gitian (ie the same build as the official release builds) if you
want.
Something like the current jenkins scripts could also be easily hacked
up to automatically sanity-test pull requests as they come in and catch
common errors (or just sanity failures).
