Good point.
The site which implements the described mechanism is indeed only 
public.planetmirror.com/downloads.planetmirror.com.

I've checked qmail, eclipse and python sites.
python.planetmirror.com is no longer a mirror for python packages.
Downloads from qmail and eclipse work fine (except that many eclipse 
ports have wrong paths (which is being reported by portsurvey)).
This has been checked by manually downloading one distfile from each 
server with fetch, saving the file in distfiles directory and then doing 
a make checksum.

So the conclusion is that only http://public.planetmirror.com and 
http://downloads.planetmirror.com addresses pose a problem.
