CTM broke - last available Delta was April 19, please fix ASAP

I think I found the problem with the ftp sites for the CTM deltas.  Recently was
created a new xEmpty for cvs-cur.  It seems that rsync takes more than an hour
to download this file, by which time a new rsync daemon starts.  The effect
seems to be that the older rsync process simply stops (although it does not get
killed), and the new rsync process starts all over again.

A fix to this problem is to reduce the number of times that the rsync update
takes place.  But really this seems to be a problem with rsync.  Any other
suggestions?
