Actually the woody installmanual uses a mix. The links in the
manual itself don't use content negotiation. I guess this was
done to provide a initial link for all languages (e.g.
http://www.debian.org/releases/woody/alpha/install) but prevent
the problems you mentioned.
The link issue means that a change in build.sh would not be enough to
change the scheme, though. Good that you mentioned it :)
