It doesn't look like a cache to me.  It looks like that, unlike FreeBSD, 
they keep a copy of distribution tarballs that they use.  It's not a 
cache, but a primary repository.

That's what it looks like to me.  If you know that it's definitively 
just a cache, that might change the story.

As as aside, as Chris Rees alluded, some of these breakages that had no 
warnings had big consequences.  Really, too big to just break outright. 
The situation I transitioned them to are better than what they were. 
They are intended to be temporary in any case.
