It sounds strange, but parent of AttachmentEntry is not necessarily PageEntry. 
Sometimes great URLs occur, like this:
http://sites.google.com/site/mysite/notes/note200/DSC_1496.JPG/DSC_1498.JPG 
(one 
attachment and then another). Their origination is obscure for me, but it 
seems, 
they have to do with versioned attachments. I suppose, it may be some 
architectural 
flaw in Google Sites, sometimes browsing through such pages leads to 404 error.

I suggest for now: simply catch an exception at 
com.google.sites.liberation.export.SiteExporterImpl.java (at least, in this 
case 
export completes, and it seems, all attachments are here, I am not quite shure 
about 
latest versions)

for (AttachmentEntry attachment : attachments) {
        progressListener.setStatus("Downloading attachment: " 
            + attachment.getTitle().getPlainText() + '.');

        try {           
            downloadAttachment(attachment, rootDirectory, entryStore, 
sitesService);
        } catch (Exception ex) {
            progressListener.setStatus("Error downloading attachment " 
                + attachment.getTitle().getPlainText() + " : " + 
ex.toString() + '.');
        }

        progressListener.setProgress(((double) ++currentEntries) / totalEntries);
      }
