That was it, thanks.  While searching for info on the status 400 errors I 
came across a few messages saying it could be caused by having a letter in 
the version string.  I didn't realize leading zeroes could be a problem. 
Many, perhaps most, upstream developers use leading zeroes after the first 
dot.  The source tarball for the package I'm trying to build is:

rxvt-unicode-9.06.tar.bz2

I'm new to pkgbuild and SFE spec files, and I know IPS support in pkgbuild 
is a work in progress.  Trying to download rxvt-unicode-9.6.tar.bz2 will 
fail, so just changing the version to 9.6 in the specfile probably isn't 
an option.  Should pkgbuild be transforming the upstream maintainer's 
version into an IPS acceptable version, or is there a way to specify both 
versions in the spec file?
