It's pretty standard, that if you're going to re-organize sections of your web page, that you set up redirection, so that the moved items don't generate 404 errors.

The fact that the URL isn't the one in the link isn't that big of a deal. If you really want to know where it used to go to, you can always try the Wayback Machine from The Internet Archive:

http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.activestate.com/Products/Perl_Dev_Kit/

This won't work if the site had a robots.txt at the time, that denied spidering of the site, but in this case, there are multiple versions available.
