Well, I would say, that if only usefull purpouse of the homepage was to download the tarball, than you can just drop the homepage header; appearently the user has no nead for the tarball ;) If there was usefull content on it (e.g. documentation) you could try to link to the specific page of archive.com; not the best solution, but better than nothing I would say.
