178	file-4.23.tar.gz source, 4.24, and 4.25	William Harrington	clfs-commits@…	"Howdy everybody,

    Well, file-4.23 hasn't been around for a while on the astron ftp server, and the download link is broke cause of that.

The current location to download file has 4.24 and 4.25.  We can either change to another download location, or just
upgrade file to 4.24 or 4.25.

The ChangeLog in 4.25 shows the following chances since 4.23 (bottom up):
