Ergo, downloads via http from ftp.uk.kernel.org are at best unreliable

I agree that it's not directly your problem, and isn't something you
have direct control over. However, if you want to round-robin the
<cc>.kernel.org IP addresses between different providers, I suggest
that either the name resolves to just one site, or that kernel.org
adopts a policy with their mirrors that they only become part of
the <cc>.kernel.org DNS entries as long as they do not rewrite their
site-specific URLs in terms of that address.
Indeed. I just sent a complaint about this, and if we can figure out a
decent way to test for this automatically we'll add it to our automatic
tests.
There is also always ftp.
