Odd distfile download

I have a port I am writing which uses an unusual way of distributing
tarballs. The only download for official sources that I can tell is
through their web source control interface. They have a URL which
provides a tarball of a tagged version from their source control
software. The URL is
http://new.openspf.org/source/software/sendmail-spf-milter/tags/1.42.1.tar.gz?view=tar
This causes fetch and wget to save the file as 1.42.1.tar.gz?view=tar,
but netscape removes the ?view=tar. Should I just make the port
download it as that name, but have it placed in a subdirectory using the
port name?
