I'm really surprised that ftp.freebsd.org *isn't* guaranteed to have every 
distfile.  I was going to set up this VM to be running tinderbox and be my 
binary package distribution server, figuring that since it's an internal 
service it didn't really need v4 connectivity (all my other machines are 
dual-stacked).  I thought for sure I could rely on ftp.freebsd.org to get me 
files where maintainers didn't have their own distribution in both protocol 
families.  I was even thinking about recompiling the kernel without INET 
support.
