25 the line ">>> Starting rsync with rsync://64.127.121.98/gentoo-portage... "
26 is produced after dns resolution so yes it is.
27 mirror choices 1 and 4 above are currently dead when I try them,
28 choices 2 and 3 are responding to my browser.
29 Suggest you remove the GENTOO_MIRRORS=" line from /etc/make.conf
30 If there is a lot of turbulence in the rsync servers near you, your mirror
31 select choices and/or your dns cache values may be overtaken by events and
32 be invalid today although good yesterday.
