Not caused any problems on either of the machines I've use 2.5 on.

You'll still get the output to the console, but it will be written to

As for re-downloading from another mirror, that's a waste of effort, as
portage checks the MD5 sum of the downloaded file before it unpacks it.
So you can be sure you've got the correct file.
