GitHub archive tarballs are not stable over time. Once it gets regenerated the expected SHA hash won't match.
As an alternative URL we could instead use one of:
http://ftp.videolan.org/pub/videolan/x265/x265_2.9.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.videolan.org/pub/videolan/x265/x265_2.9.tar.gz
https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265/downloads/x265_2.9.tar.gz

It would work too yes. But then we lose the insurance of having a fallback server to fetch from.
Not that this is a critical piece of software in the whole <nixpkgs> set but some day the fallback could avoid a number of Hydra build failures.
