I realise that rebuilding everything is a pain, but it looks bad to
have broken links on a download page that has been sent to the general
announce list.

Especially when it relates to a security fix.

However it should not be necessary to rebuild everything just to fix a
single page; it can be updated directly in the relevant site repo
which should take a few minutes.
