You can either download the 'newest version', or you can download a
specific version. If your tell your browser to download
asterisk-1-4.current.tar.gz, the server can't tell your browser to
actually give that file a different name after downloading it...
although it's possible we could come up with some creative HTTP redirect
mechanism that redirected your browser to the version-numbered filename,
instead of using a symbolic link on the filesystem.
