A fallback mirror like > ftp.freebsd.org could fill-in this job. I'm really surprised that ftp.freebsd.org *isn't* guaranteed to have = every distfile. I was going to set up this VM to be running tinderbox = and be my binary package distribution server, figuring that since it's = an internal service it didn't really need v4 connectivity (all my other = machines are dual-stacked). I thought for sure I could rely on = ftp.freebsd.org to get me files where maintainers didn't have their own = distribution in both protocol families. I was even thinking about = recompiling the kernel without INET support.
