I would say YES.

The files may be ok now, but what are they going to do in the future?

We should make sure that everyone knows the SF binaries are no longer
officially endorsed or maintained.

Chances are we cannot re-gain control of the files at SF so anything
may be connected to this project in the future. This appears to be
pretty widespread so I expect any project left using SF will start
moving away soon.
