For my usecase I appended this to PackageIndex.process_url():

SF_ONCLICK =
re.compile(r"""onClick\s*=\s*"\s*init_download\(\s*'(.*?)'\);\s*\"""", re.I)

        # handle sourceforge links
        for match in SF_ONCLICK.finditer(page):
            link = urlparse.urljoin(base, htmldecode(match.group(1)))
            self.process_url(link)

This checks the onClick attribute.

Not nice, but works.
