So it's 9PM on a Saturday night, and I'm reading the Dragon Book. So
there's that.
(I didn't actually intend to; I just did a Google search, and started
reading a PDF. I only just realised it's the Dragon Book...)

Can't tell; the PDF only contains chapter 8.

Really? This:
http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/agbkb/lehre/ccfl/Material/ALSUdragonbook.pdf
seems to have it all.

The URL that Google gave me was
http://dragonbook.stanford.edu/lecture-notes/Stanford-CS143/08-Bottom-Up-Parsing.pdf
If you move up a folder, it seems to have other chapters too. But I
still don't know which version of the book it is. (Or why it's legal to
put it on the web like this...)

The version I found on Google says 'Second Edition' which seems to be
1986 ("The Purple Dragon Book").
It looks like the universities (Bremen, Stanford) put it online for
their students, but why it has gone public is strange, except if the
author has accepted to have the book in both forms. I know of at least
one other example where this is the case indeed (a study book of Old
English grammar).

Interesting, do you have a link?
I have an original Old English grammar book from the 18th (?) Century. I
don't have it to hand but the font is one of those that has the letter
"s" looks like a "f" when it is inside the word. It also said that there
were only two tenses, present and past. IIRC

Oh sure, if it's on the web, it's perfectly legal for Google to index
it. My point was more how it got to be on the public web in the first
place...

The link you gave is Stanford University's own site. It is a handout for
their students. Stanford University does that. Several years ago I
downloaded MoCap files that they made public for a course they were
running. You will probably find that it is removed when the course is over.

Not a pdf I am afraid but well usable. I found it recently when I got
interested in Old English after reading the Beowulf translation by
J.R.R. Tolkien. Interestingly, I found that there are a lot of O.E.
words and sentence constructions that are similar to Dutch or Frisian
(and German no doubt). Not so surprising as the language was spoken on
both sides of the North Sea.
