Geeeez. That's a good one. What will they think of next. The legality of the assignment is based on both the notification time (4 hours from start of FSB) AND the push time (5 hours from start of FSB). It sounds like they were trying to squeeze in compliance with the first requirement but it would fail to comply with the second.
5-H-2 Without his concurrence, a Pilot shall not be held on standby duty at the airport in excess of four (4) hours and any assigned Flight must be scheduled to depart no later than five (5) hours from the start of his Duty Period.
