Could it be that you were going through some proxy, and either the server has 
failed to give proper headers or the proxy is broken?

it is named mod_perl-<version> .tar.gz, modperl-2.0-current.tar.gz is just a 
symlink, which you can always download and it'll will give you the latest 
version. it also allows us to keep the link always correct on the web-site, 
and more important on those outdated mirrors that you can find on the web.
