we just followed suit with previous announcements, not sure if that was a
conscious decision back in the days, but given how any page on the
www.php.net site can be redirected to a mirror when the main site is
overloaded(which happened a lot after the announcement), I think it would
be fine to change the links to not have proto or domain, so they will be
relative to the domain they are linking from.

works for me.
maybe you are/were redirected to a mirror, which isn't up-to-date with the
docs yet?

that was working since yesterday (originally some links were wrong, but I
fixed that and verified that they were working.

those links also work for me.
could you tell me which is your preferred language and mirror on php.net?
