I dunno, you think it's worth the trouble?  The whole premise of this
proposal is that hardly anybody is looking at those pages.  If that's
not the case, we shouldn't be doing this.

OTOH, if we can easily set up a generic redirect rule like "if
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/*/static/release-*.html
doesn't exist, then redirect to
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/old-release-notes/static/release-*.html";
it might be worth doing.
