Fixed.  It may take a few minutes for sourceforge's caches to pick it up.

Could I ask for someone to (1) add this to Etc/creating-a-release.txt,
(2) write a script for updating that page that can be run as part of the
release process?  I've got my hands full.  (The web pages are in git;
creating-a-release.txt has a pointer.)

I agree.  The Web pages are in git.  They're straight html (not
generated from anything).  Would you have time to patch this?

Fixed.  It may take a few minutes for sourceforge's caches to pick it
up.  I must have overlooked this last time, sorry.
