The following example links do not work

http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin

I would think all you are checking here, and with your previous script is that the cgi-bin directory doesn't allow listings, which I would suspect has always been the case.

http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/htdocs/cgi-bin2?cvsroot=cygwin

This is a problem because the second link for example was the only page to host
the source of "package-grep.cgi". So either those links need to be restored, or
new links need to be revealed.

The clue should be in the URL that this a web view of a CVS repository. The files are still available via CVS.

"cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sourceware.org:/cvs/cygwin co htdocs"

cvsweb on sourceware has been retired in favour of viewvc, but it seems there are still some repositories and redirects missing from that.
