I am seeing this too, on a long-standing mirror using lftp direct from
ftp.scientificlinux.org.  Clobbered some installations I was doing of
our copy on Sunday - we lost some of the SL4.4 i386 base stuff, mostly
files starting 'o'  (openssl, openoffice, openssh, ... list on request).
A re-sync of the mirror brought the files back.
