Dunno if you're saving a lot of time not pulling those pieces. They don't
change much, so one you have them they'll stay pretty still.

In any case, looking at my cvsup-mirror config, it looks like we do need a
src-rescue dist target.  In the interim you might try building with
NO_RESCUE=yes set.

My sources tell me that we've just added a src-rescue distribution, but
it'll take a while to propagate out to the mirrors.
