As far as I know, ftp.gnu.org would only be concerned with the source, that 
is, the content of 
   http://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/releases/
and not with binary packages in upper level directories, and these source 
tarballs are usually kept indefinitely.

One also need not add the patch and diff files, so that the amount of 
storage would be quite manageable.
