Details

If you go to the URL above, and click on the link "Fink 0.5.0a Binary
Installer", (which links to
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/fink/Fink-0.5.0a-Installer.dmg)  you will get
an 11KB file, Fink-0.5.0a-Installer.dmg, instead of seeing a new page which lets
you select a download mirror. Are we purely checking the file's extension rather
than the MIME type of the content the server is sending us? IE 5 correctly goes
to the page rather than downloading a tiny file.
Fixed in current nightly builds.  See #175848 for the gory details.
