You definitely need the feature I implemented in ticket #115, which is
in Buildbot 0.7.7.  This allows the filename passed to
FileUpload/FileDownload steps to be a WithProperties object.  If
you're using 0.7.6, the patch series attached to the ticket
(http://buildbot.net/trac/ticket/115) should apply cleanly.

Depending on what your filenames are generated from, you might also
need the "custom build properties" feature in ticket #87
(http://buildbot.net/trac/ticket/87).  Unfortunately, that patch set
is in a rather messy state at the moment.  I suspect the best place to
go is Dustin's darcs repository.  Check other recent list posts for
pointers.
