Sourceforge seems to have changed the format of their download URLs
once again.  The source url for the first one is:

http://download.sourceforge.net/expat/expat-%{version}.tar.gz

which corresponds with the advice given here (and obviously this
worked previously).

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:SourceURL

But the above link no longer works, and the new URL is this:

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/expat/expat/2.0.1/expat-2.0.1.tar.gz

What's the current thinking on SF URLs?  Perhaps we should have an RPM
macro/feature to hide this hideousness?

Fixed by rebasing to new upstream version 3.0.2.

> rjones:BADURL:coccinelle-0.1.10.tgz:coccinelle

Fixed by rebasing to new upstream version 0.2.0rc1.

Upstream moved.  Fixed by rebasing to 2.3.11.

Annoyingly tricky to fix.  Anyone in fedora-mingw SIG want to help?

> rjones:BADURL:ocaml-autoconf-1.1.tar.gz:ocaml-autoconf

This seems OK to me, but it's an HTTPS URL with a self-signed
certificate, and I seem to remember those caused problems for spectool
in the past.

Fixed.
