The MSYS2 project has moved some stuff away from sourceforge to its own
site. The sources are now at:

  https://repo.msys2.org/mingw/sources/

For the libtiff download above, that results in:

  https://repo.msys2.org/mingw/sources/mingw-w64-libtiff-4.3.0-6.src.tar.gz

The script will need adjusting to change the URL, and drop the
"/download" suffix.
