Right, I misinterpreted what you mean by "linked".

My firefox does not warn in this case (this is a different domain) but
nevermind.
Wherever the tarball comes from, it has to be checked against the
digests from https://httpd.apache.org/dist/ for any trust to be
possible (this is less/not a requirement for PGP though, the trust is
more on the signer).
Even if you change the mirror on the /dowwload.cgi page, the links to
the digests remain the same.

That could be addressed by the infra team, but I guess it does not
matter too much, it's a backup host (note that the certificate is the
same as for httpd.apache.org, i.e. *.apache.org).
