Newer versions of roundup require you to issue a POST instead of a GET
request for doing actions on the database. That's why a simple URL-hack
like the one you describe

won't work on newer versions. You *can* write a script that issues a
POST-request instead.

You can also retire issues via the xmlrpc interface.

If you want to create a 'retire' link in a web-form you should follow
the instructions under the heading 'Fix the "remove" button in issue
files and messages lists' in doc/upgrading (this is in the section
"Migrating from 1.4.x to 1.4.9"). It boils down to adding
'method="POST"' to the web-form.
