The story about EPSG:42304 is explained in that same document at:
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/docs/howto/wms_client/#install-optional-proj4-epsg-codes

However, you're right that using a non-standard EPSG code in an example 
is a bad idea so I have created a bug to ask the maintainer of the doc 
to use EPSG:4326 (geographic lon/lat) in the examples instead:
