This is what pkg+http:// or pkg+https// style URLs and MIRROR_TYPE=SRV
are for.  You create some SRV records in the DNS which resolve to the
list of URLs you want your pkg repo to be available at.

_http._tcp.pkg.example.com IN SRV 10 10 80 pkg1.example.com
_http._tcp.pkg.example.com IN SRV 50 10 80 pkg2.example.com

Check the docco on SRV records -- you can use the 'priority' field to
direct traffic to one server primarily, and then try the other one if
the first fails.

	Cheers,
