The GitHub /archive/ URLs are not stable: they might fall out of GitHubs
cache and be regenerated, with different time stamps.  So we should use
git-fetch here instead.

This is different from "/releases/", which are uploaded.  Unfortunately
GitHubs UI makes it difficult to tell the difference short of looking at
the URL.

Nit: we usually sort inputs.  Helpful when there are dozens.

Why yes, I know some of these words :-) would it make sense to define
"SID" here with @acronym?

This is actually GPL2+, because none of the source files say "version 2
only" (and some actually say explicitly GPL2-or-later).

Can you send an updated patch?
