Thanks for the report. We already know about the problem, and are on fixing it. Most of the mirrors lack the manuals (online and downloadable versions) right now.
The normal online manual is being put on the main mirror (www.php.net) right now, CHM manuals will follow in about a few hours. Due to different update policies of other mirrors it may take a while before the normal 'phpweb' manuals are distributed again. These are all manual builds of a week ago, tomorrow I will setup the whole new build system for them on our brand new box. This should also make the manuals all up to date regularly again.
Sounds good to me, that you have finally grabbed the task and will do it ;) BTW I have found a way to build the extended CHM again, and just released a new version, as the previous one was released before last christmas, so it was just time to release a new one...
