Make a DIST_SUBDIR with an appropriate name (proj-9.6 seems a little
ambiguous to me, but I have no idea what it is, it might be OK) and
then simply allow the file fetch (into that dir) to produce whatever
filename it produces, and use that (with a rename if essential) however
meaningless it seems.

No - they seem to have adequately given a specific name to the file,
including a version string - just not in the way you're expecting (or
that is more common). Being different isn't a bug.
