There's actually quite a few missing from it, as well as one that's
corrupted. All the ones that I've tracked down are listed in the
kernel version index I've put online at the URL below, and those I've
come across that aren't on the SunSite-UK mirror of ftp.kernel.org
(plus the one on there that's corrupted, I found an uncorrupted copy
thereof), along with bzip2'd versions of the ones not bzip2'd on
SunSite's UK mirror, can be found at...

ftp://ftp.amush.ml.org/pub/rhw/Linux/

All have been timestamped with the most recent timestamp contained
therein...and if you wish to move them to ftp.kernel.org you have my
blessings...

Best wishes from Riley.
