At least in this particular case, I don't think, the removal is warranted.

The public distfiles disappeared not because of a deliberate action by 
the developer or copyright-holder, but simply because the entire 
ftp.cwi.nl is now gone. Sites continue to host the file -- we should 
allow CWI.net to sort things out with their FTP-server (or, perhaps, 
they intend to offer the same code over HTTP later).
