Hm, yes...  I suspect this is because the version built for 2008Q3 was
later found to have a security vulnerability, so it was moved to the
"vulnerable" directory, so

  ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/packages/4.0/evbppc/vulnerable/

contains it.  The vulnerabilities are apparently

libxml2<2.7.2nb2        arbitrary-code-execution        
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-4225
libxml2<2.7.2nb2        denial-of-service       
http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-4226

You could also get a newer version (2.7.2nb2) from the preliminary
build of 2008Q4 for powerpc at

  ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/powerpc/4.0_2008Q4/All/
