Well, the contents of this URL will change as Sage evolves. The one
with the changeset id should be valid as long as the hg servers are up
(it's a snapshot). One can also link to code from a specific release
(technically, tag), e.g.
http://hg.sagemath.org/sage-main/file/4.6/sage/modular/cusps_nf.py
