Hi Torquil,

I think you've found a real bug here. The Python code that manages the 
site does its own generation of the files you were downloading, so it is 
likely to blame for this issue.

I consider this an unannounced API breakage caused by the transition, so 
it gets high priority. I hope to have a fix live within 1-2 days (though 
of course if someone beats me to it, I will not complain).

Thanks for the high-quality report!
