9 Because they are functionally equivalent.

11 If you do have a SRC_URI pointing to dev.g.o, then portage _will_ look
12 for the file in the gentoo mirrors by default unless you explicitly
13 RESTRICT it.

15 Having two SRC_URI entries is not really going to make a difference, and
16 it's easier to catch: you just remove the gentoo entry from
17 thirdpartymirrors.
