The fetch does not fail, right? Each path should have a fallback path and should have a mirrored version of the file already. Here is how list of fallbacks is built for gcc: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/eclass/toolchain.eclass#n240
Hi Sergei, thank you for the link. Now I understand what happens. Some day in a far, far future we will have a common folder for all distfiles and are not forced to these workarounds. Sorry for the noise and a happy new year.
