Thanks for looking into this timeout stuff. I figured we would have had something like that in MacPorts already by now!

Have you also put in any rate-limiting checks? I've run into problems lately with the mirror for gcc46 delivering part of a file to me, then stalling, and MacPorts sitting forever waiting for data and not giving up and trying another mirror as I would prefer. I'm running the 1.9 branch though, not trunk, so if you've already made improvements there I haven't seen them yet.
