Well, "normal" = yes.  It is an artifact from when we offered FTP as the
download mechanism (on the very last pages of bootimage/retrofit).  At
this point, it is really just an orphaned "feature".  I just removed it
from linuxcoe.rc (but it did no harm).

I am a bit surprised by this one, as it used to work and will
try to fix this.

I am not too surprised by this list in the "docs" space.  All of these
are in fact the "source" DocBook files, and I only try to ensure that
the final .html (and .pdf) files (which are the ones visible from
the WebUI of SystemDesigner are certain to have the substitutions.

As noted before, I am still in process of a rather major overhaul of
the documentation guides (due to a lot of the upgrades to the code),
so there are in fact more changes coming.
