We now have a copy of the dumps on a backup host. Although we are still resolving hardware issues on the XML dumps server, we think it is safe enough to serve the existing dumps read-only. DNS was updated to that effect already; people should see the dumps within the hour.

Hi, thank you for working so hard on this issue, but I'm still having trouble with the latest en.wikipedia dump, however. I downloaded http://download.wikimedia.org/enwiki/20101011/enwiki-20101011-pages- articles.xml.bz2 and am running into trouble decompressing.
In particular, bzip2 -d enwiki-20101011-pages-articles.xml.bz2 fails.
And bzip2 -tvv enwiki-20101011-pages-articles.xml.bz2 reports:
[2752: huff+mtf data integrity (CRC) error in data
I ran bzip2recover & then bzip2 -t rec* and got the following:
bzip2: rec02752enwiki-20101011-pages-articles.xml.bz2: data integrity (CRC) error in data bzip2: rec08881enwiki-20101011-pages-articles.xml.bz2: data integrity (CRC) error in data bzip2: rec26198enwiki-20101011-pages-articles.xml.bz2: data integrity (CRC) error in data
