pointing to packages which are in unstable or testing feels very wrong.
New versions can come up at any time in unstable, and (if some
constraints are satisfied), can move to testing and overwrite what was
there before. (But pointing to packages in stable would buy you several
years.)

If you need to point to such a package anyway, I'd suggest considering
snapshot.debian.org, which should retain all packages. For example:
  http://snapshot.debian.org/package/fakeroot/1.14.5-1/

http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20101205T211007Z/pool/main/f/fakeroot/fakeroot_1.14.5.orig.tar.bz2

As a consequence, the URL to the original tarball includes a date
(meaning “fakeroot as seen in Debian as of $date), but I guess that
won't cause any issue.

If you have more Debian-related questions, feel free to ask.

Cheers,
