Thanks, Stef. :)  This has been corrected in both branches. Current
daily snapshots should work again. And we even released new tarballs for
both stable and unstable branch with this fixed.

I really need more time for mailing lists... :/

That's an sf.net issue we can do nothing about, unfortunately. The
download.sf.net server we use is supposed to pick a working mirror...

Apparently this either was a temporary issue only, or it is somewhat
specific to your location/ISP. I just checked all sources we get from
sf.net, and it worked for me.

(15 of 18 total tarballs from sf.net have been retrieved on the first
'make fetch' attempt, 2 tarballs needed a second attempt. The last
missing one was successful on the 4th go... Yes, it is commonly known
that sf.net pretty much sucks at this, but there are projects that are
available only on sf.net, unfortunately. [1])

[1] We do switch to non sf.net servers (or more reliable servers, in
    general) if at all possible. Recently being moved away from sf.net
    are docbook-xml and libxklavier.)
