Grrr. IIRC that's because you have to link a page on SF which has the
actual binaries, and that link has to be updated by hand which I apparently
forgot when making a release.

I'd be tempted to replace that unreadable link with
http://sourceforge.net/projects/scipy/files/scipy/ and not care about
pip/easy_install scanning that page. Binary installers don't work anyway
and source bundles are on pypi already, so download_url is mainly for human
consumption.
