Confirmed.  Well, partially.  ERRATA.TXT looks intact and nominally 
matches up with what I'd expect to see.  The others are FUBAR-ed.

I suspect something on the machine used for building the snapshots...I
rolled a release at home yesterday and its *.HTM and *.TXT files look OK
and no one's made any drastic changes to the release documents since
then.  jkh is the only person I know of who can go in and diagnose/fix
any problems though.

Until this is fixed, you can try snapshots.jp.freebsd.org...their latest
4-STABLE snapshot looks intact.  (They give you the PDF renditions of 
the release documents too!)

Bruce.
