I edited apt's methods/connect.cc:Connect() function after the line
saying "struct addrinfo *CurHost = LastHostAddr;" to do:

   char hbuf[NI_MAXHOST], sbuf[NI_MAXSERV];
   getnameinfo( CurHost->ai_addr, CurHost->ai_addrlen,
                        hbuf, sizeof(hbuf),           
                        sbuf, sizeof(sbuf),
                        NI_NUMERICHOST );
   char *msg;
   sprintf(msg, "\nUsing IP address: %s, with service %s\n", hbuf, sbuf);
   return _error->Error( msg );

Then I ran it with a minimal sources.list file including only security.d.o:

% for i in $(seq 1 30); do LD_LIBRARY_PATH=bin bin/apt-get -o 
"Dir::Etc::SourceList=$PWD/sources.list" -o "Dir::State::Lists=$PWD/foo" -o

     11  128.31.0.36
     11  212.211.132.32

Screwy... let's try a larger sample:

% for i in $(seq 1 99); do LD_LIBRARY_PATH=bin bin/apt-get -o 
"Dir::Etc::SourceList=$PWD/sources.list" -o "Dir::State::Lists=$PWD/foo" -o 
"Dir::Bin::Methods=$PWD/bin/methods" update 2>/dev/null | grep Using | sort -u; 
done | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d, -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
     30  212.211.132.250
     33  212.211.132.32
     36  128.31.0.36
% for i in $(seq 1 99); do LD_LIBRARY_PATH=bin bin/apt-get -o 
"Dir::Etc::SourceList=$PWD/sources.list" -o "Dir::State::Lists=$PWD/foo" -o 
"Dir::Bin::Methods=$PWD/bin/methods" update 2>/dev/null | grep Using | sort -u; 
done | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d, -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
     27  212.211.132.250
     34  212.211.132.32
     38  128.31.0.36
% for i in $(seq 1 99); do LD_LIBRARY_PATH=bin bin/apt-get -o 
"Dir::Etc::SourceList=$PWD/sources.list" -o "Dir::State::Lists=$PWD/foo" -o 
"Dir::Bin::Methods=$PWD/bin/methods" update 2>/dev/null | grep Using | sort -u; 
done | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d, -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
     32  212.211.132.250
     33  128.31.0.36
     34  212.211.132.32
% for i in $(seq 1 99); do LD_LIBRARY_PATH=bin bin/apt-get -o 
"Dir::Etc::SourceList=$PWD/sources.list" -o "Dir::State::Lists=$PWD/foo" -o 
"Dir::Bin::Methods=$PWD/bin/methods" update 2>/dev/null | grep Using | sort -u; 
done | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d, -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
     30  212.211.132.250
     32  212.211.132.32
     37  128.31.0.36
% for i in $(seq 1 99); do LD_LIBRARY_PATH=bin bin/apt-get -o 
"Dir::Etc::SourceList=$PWD/sources.list" -o "Dir::State::Lists=$PWD/foo" -o 
"Dir::Bin::Methods=$PWD/bin/methods" update 2>/dev/null | grep Using | sort -u; 
done | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d, -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n
     31  212.211.132.32
     32  212.211.132.250
     36  128.31.0.36

That's a bit less screwy, although it's a bit more consistently tilting in
the direction of steffani.

On that note, let me update that other bit:

After around 11 hours, we've had:
* villa 4.29 MB/s
* lobos 3.91 MB/s
* steffani 14.86 MB/s

That would be 64% for steffani... :/
