Thanks to Stephan Holl and Otto Dassau we figured out that a .htaccess
file was sent around through 'rsync' [1] which confused most mirror
sites. This file is needed to handle settings at the grass.itc.it
master site (recently moved to a new machine). By blocking the
.htaccess in rsync, now most mirror sites are back including
http://grass.ibiblio.org .

Sorry for the mess,
 Markus
