so, because I just tried emerge sync again, and the problem is gone.
Thanks. BTW, does anyone know how this magic is done? Where are
the site configurations kept -- is it all in the nameservers?

I just ran into this the other day. The rsync mirrors I was connecting
to had an entry that didn't exist anymore. So, I filed this bug..

Take a look at it and I think you can figure out what to do. If you can
tell which server is failing then submit a bug and let them know.
HTH,
