[Slackbuilds-users] using archive.org download links

[fsLeg]

Don't know if it's acceptable, but you wouldn't be the first. Currently, there are 14 scripts that use archive.org in their DOWNLOAD:

```
 
$ dirname $(grep web.archive.org /usr/sbo/repo/*/*/*.info | grep -v HOMEPAGE | cut -d: -f1 | uniq) | sed 's|/usr/sbo/repo/||g'
accessibility/mag
audio/xmms-mp4
games/chexquest3
games/onscripter
games/xu4
graphics/baires
multimedia/ffmpeg2theora
multimedia/saflashplayer-legacy
network/QuiteRSS
office/treesheets
system/Sl
system/crc32_simple
system/symbola-font-ttf
system/v7sh
```

Personally, I'd trust an archive.org link more than a self-hosted tarball.
