Yuck. This source code is restricted so we can't host it and it will
be a huge pain to have to deal with every user complaining that they
can't download the source. Certainly we must have some other option
available on the info file level? It seem like overkill to force the
user to change timeouts or download methods system wide for just a
single slow server.
