Ah, no, it's out of date.  I'll update that, sorry.  The new way is
documented in the bzr tree's HACKING file.

If you don't have a libnih-dev package (or similar) in your distro, you
can check them out and build alongside each other, using Upstart's
--with-local-libnih option

e.g.

	bzr branch lp:libnih
	cd libnih
	autoreconf -i
	./configure
	make

	cd ..

	bzr branch lp:upstart
	cd upstart
	autoreconf -i
	./configure --with-local-libnih=../libnih
	make

If you *do* have libnih-dev, and an Upstart source tarball, then just
build it the usual way without that option.
