Just an idea; should rpmlint check for bad source URLs?  And should that
maybe get tied in to the commit/tag/build process somehow so you get
more direct feedback?

I'm most likely to fix this stuff if I'm in the middle of making some
other change, and an automatic check while I'm working on a package that
says "hey your source URL is no longer valid" would probably provoke me
to fix it quickly.  :)
