I just posted a few with this mechanism so you can try it out --
the review mail would say this:
Imported as http://svn.openlaszlo.org/openlaszlo/patches/ 
patch.ben.BMaF.tgz
and if you click on that link, it downloads the tgz for you

You can also get the individual tar with
svn export http://svn.openlaszlo.org/openlaszlo/patches/ 
patch.ben.BMaF.tgz
which gives you a non-version-controlled, vanilla tgz file.
