Actually, this is intentional. A while back, I had removed from
ibiblio the distributions before 1.0, because I was getting a lot of
off-list emails from people who had just downloaded one of the old
distros, and wanted to know (a) why things were so broken, and (b) why
everything looked so out of date. This despite the 1.0 distro having
been out for a long time, and when I pointed them to 1.0 everything
worked fine.

This dir used to be called official.old.

But now I'm having conversations with the ibiblio admins to put the
"pre-1.0" distros in a permanent "old distro" archive. They already
have something similar for old Linux distros, I think. So last week, I
put our old distros back on ibiblio into "pre-1.0" in preparation to
move them to the "old distro" archive. But I didn't want to run into
the same support problem of people downloading our old distros, so I
made the "pre-1.0" directories unreadable.

Please ignore these "permission denied" errors for "pre-1.0".
