Try:
"file:///"

Check me on this - see if I am following your description -
The site:
http://etherlab.org/en/components.php

Has a multiple component download file:
http://etherlab.org/download/bundle/etherlab-bundle-1.4.tar.bz2

That should be your download site and download package name.

Inside the bundle, it has directory trees of (among other things):
etherlab-bundle-1.6/2_rtal/linux-2.6.24.7.tar.bz2
etherlab-bundle-1.6/2_rtal/rtal-3.6.2.tar.bz2
etherlab-bundle-1.6/3_ethercat-1.4.0.tar.bz2
etherlab-bundle-1.6/5_etherlab/etherlab-1.2-rc4.tar.gz
etherlab-bundle-1.6/8_examples/example.mdl
etherlab-bundle-1.6/8_examples/example.sml
......

and you want to extract, patch, and build __some__ of the contained
archives (or, for examples, some of the files)....

Although I haven't done this myself, I do recall reading on the M.L.
here that there is a way in Buildroot to define a "custom extract"
(or download) step (or script?) -
That should be able to handle such an ugly package structure.

I think all it has to do is download the bundle of archives,
open just the outer bundle and mark each of the contained archives
as having been downloaded.  I __think__.

With the contained archives now downloaded (by extracting from the
containing package) the BR system should be able to return to running
the "extract,..." steps of each of the make files for each contained archive.

If that is what you need to do - one of the experts on the Buildroot
infrastructure needs to chime in with a "how to" here.  ;-)
