Yes, same 404 for me. This error has been reported on icu-issues mailing 
list on April 13th [1] and the reply from Stephan Pakebusch was:

So I guess the https://icu4c-demos.unicode.org/icu-bin/locexp link is 
still the proper one, and eventually it will be fixed. Anyway, the old 
link, https://ssl.icu-project.org/icu-bin/locexp, if one goes through 
"wrong domain in certificate" errors, still redirects to the same
https://icu4c-demos.unicode.org/icu-bin/locexp

I believe changing link in Postgres' docs is better than keeping the old 
one, even though they are currently both 404 one way or another. At 
least it would save people following that link from scary "Warning: 
Potential Security Risk Ahead" messages before properly 404-ing.
