MASTER_SITES=   http://trac.bjourne.webfactional.com/attachment/wiki/WikiStart/
MASTER_SITES_TRAC=      
http://trac.bjourne.webfactional.com/attachment/wiki/WikiStart/

or something like that.  Really the semantics is

  This MASTER_SITE
  (http://trac.bjourne.webfactional.com/attachment/wiki/WikiStart/) is
  really a trac server with attachments, not a regular web server, so use
  the special trac download rule for it.
