The various links on the XUL Reference at MDC are broken again (they
were apparently broken earlier this year in August). See it here:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en/XUL/grid

The error on the links are as follows:

MindTouch.Deki.Script.DekiScriptUndefinedNameException: reference to
undefined name 'mediawiki': line 1, column 1

This is a script on the server that isn't running correctly; there's a
problem at the moment where certain support scripts used by some of
our templates are dying and failing to automatically restart. This has
been fixed in the next release of the wiki software, which is due for
release in less than a week; we'll pick that up shortly after that,
once we've done some testing.

Great. I guess you must have manually restarted the script. The
documentation pages are working fine now. Is there a static version of
the entire XUL reference that can be donwloaded? (so that I don't need
to crawl them?)

Hmm... premature. The pages are all broken again.

There isn't, but I have plans to create one once we get some other
stuff done. There is a plan in place for that; it won't be hard.

The problem is that one of the two servers is broken and the other
isn't; getting this fixed is a hassle and it keeps re-breaking, so at
this point all I can realistically do is assure everyone that we have
a fix we'll be deploying soon.
