About the broken mirror http://apache.cs.uu.nl/, I was premature: The flaw 
seems to be way more serious, and seems to be apache-dist/jakarta/.htaccess in 
general!

It is not. In my former mail, I do not state that the problem is at 
http://apache.cs.uu.nl/. It is not doing what it is supposed to, but the 
problem originates somewhere else, so the problem is *not* at 
http://apache.cs.uu.nl/.

Yes I do think there is something terribly wrong! Maven should garantuee 
correct jars. If due to some configuration error, wrong jars end up in my 
project, then something is wrong. So I do not understand apache member Henk 
Penning to shoot the messenger, instead of seeing the severity of the issue, 
and try helping to get it out of the world. 

So, anyhow, who knows how I can address the correct person to file this problem 
that it gets resolved.
