  Log:
  Add backpan.cpan.org as a last resort mirror, to remove the often seen
  failure case where the package a port relies on is moved from cpan to cold
  storage (backpan).
  
  On my system, it takes 70 seconds to fall through the mirrors before hitting
  backpan, which is enough to be annoying (so you press C-c and file a PR),
  but not enough to ruin the normal use-case (make install elsewhere and go
  fetch coffee).  A current port where this is an issue is archivers/p5-IO-Zlib
