Patrick, those links are dead for years now so nothing surprising - the binaries got lost in a server crash many years ago, so checking them is actually somewhat pointless.
Also note that some of them are not valid - not all builds are signed. That said, I have removed those that are not recoverable and added a link to Bob's page (we talked about it for a while with Bob). Bob, in your checks, can you, please, reduce it to valid checks, i.e. those that are actually expected to work? It seems to confuse people ;).
