The problem is fixed now. What I did was a "host www.postgresql.org" and
4 IPs were returned:

www.postgresql.org is an alias for static.mirrors.postgresql.org.
static.mirrors.postgresql.org has address 217.196.146.201
static.mirrors.postgresql.org has address 66.98.251.159
static.mirrors.postgresql.org has address 80.179.151.210
static.mirrors.postgresql.org has address 212.247.200.180

I did a telnet to each one and an HTTP request to see if the document
existed on that box. For those two I listed in the previous email, no
document existed which was causing a 404 for some people (like me).

Now the document exists on all those 4 IPs. It just took a while for
them to sync up I guess.
