All:

The problem is server-side (vbatts, looks like your PHP-based
backend might be to blame):

$ wget http://www.hashbangbash.com/downloads/src/go.net-98.tar.gz
$ md5sum go.net-98.tar.gz
ada7722b72a1ea66a4c6a78f3e7009b2  go.net-98.tar.gz

$ wget --header="accept-encoding: gzip" 
http://www.hashbangbash.com/downloads/src/go.net-98.tar.gz
$ md5sum go.net-98.tar.gz
ebcefca8bcb3c4a6926ac4122825bcf3  go.net-98.tar.gz

As you can see, when the client advertises it accepts gzip encoding
(which most browsers do), the server is gzipping the gzipped tarball
before transmission.
