Is this by design? Should we never link download.html?
yes - this is the convention for mirrored sites.
Any way to fix this automatically?
We could change download.html to be a non-mirror-enabled page, just with general info about the versions, and have links that went to a page set up for mirroring (and whose name ended in .cgi) where the actual download is. See for an example of this organization,

http://db.apache.org/derby/derby_downloads.html

If you hover over the "l0.4.1.3" link you'll see the mirror (.cgi) page being linked to.

Or, we could do something fancy - like rename this to something more obscure, and redirect both download.html and download.cgi to new-obscure-name-for-download.cgi (I don't really like this approach...)
