The built package catalog appears to not be working.

```auto

  URL: https://pkg-build.racket-lang.org/server/built/catalog/pkg/net-cookies-lib?version=8.3
  status code: 403

I think the "net-cookies-lib" package is part of the main distribution, which means it won't be represented in that catalog. The intent is that the built-package catalog is used along with the release catalog.

I have the following catalogs configured, I thought it would fall back to the release catalog.

```auto
catalogs:
  https://pkg-build.racket-lang.org/server/built/catalog/
  https://download.racket-lang.org/releases/8.3/catalog/
  https://pkgs.racket-lang.org
  https://planet-compats.racket-lang.org

```

Here's the install command and output (strangely no error for net-cookies-lib this time):

In that case, I think the issue is the 403 result instead of 404.

It feels like I've been here before, but maybe that was for a different S3 bucket. I've changed permissions to produce a 404, so it should work better.

Thanks @mflatt . It's working now.
