This non-conformance bug works in both directions, so an easy kludge is
to hard link all file names like this:

$ ln foobar-1.2+baz3_all.deb  'foobar-1.2 baz3_all.deb'

And sync to the s3 bucket normally.  Afterwards, the key can be called
through http with a literal "+" character or the "%2B" escape.  Most
clients like `apt-get` and `wget` will write out a file with the correct
name using either form in the URL.
