It's possible it's just your mirror was a little slower getting the 
update from the master.  I don't know much about the portsnap mirror 
infrastructure, but if they're updated via cron, maybe their timings are 
just a little off for when syncing from the master.  If the mirror tried 
to sync every 8 hours, but syncs 30 minutes before the master builds a 
new set, it'll always be seven and a half hours behind instead of 30 
minutes.
