There exist half a dozen packages that have a mirror:master Source 
field. Mostly these are packages using older sources that don't exist at 
the original URL any more, but there are also cases where a tarball has 
just been hosted somewhere for a couple of days until the mirror system 
picked it up. Doesn't seem to have caused problems so far (apart from 
having uncovered a bug in the MirrorOrder config option that was hidden 
before).
