No. The previous discussion has shown that ping results don't
necessarily reflect cvsupd responsiveness (and cvsup servers
don't need to accept ping and traceroute "requests" as long as
they serve their primary purpose). If one would count on basic
network services, both distance and delay seem to matter. That's
why "traceroute -n $H | tail -1" should be of concern -- short of
a measure for cvsup efficiency (until experience over multiple
cvsup sessions has been established).
