Dang it.  Looks like debian.crosslink.net isn't a complete mirror.
Using the 
same script against ftp.debian.org it wants to download another 227 meg
!

When I look at the file list from each site, ftp.debian.org has
everything
where it should, while debian.crosslink.net is missing a lot of stuff
...

I hate to use the master to update my mirror - what other sites are
truly
*guaranteed* to be complete ?
