Comment (by kencu):

 I'm looking to understand why distfile mirroring doesn't work at present.
 Was this feature implemented as part of MacPorts by using the
 portmirror:mirror_main function in
 `/opt/local/libexec/macports/lib/port1.0/portmirror.tcl`? If so, I don't
 immediately see why it is not working...

 Or was there perhaps a specific buildbot with a current `curl` that
 mirrored it's distfiles to some main repository source mirror using a
 cron/rsync script outside of macports?
