I personally dislike the `-MIRROR' and `-SOURCE' special-casing. I
found it hard to understand (especially when looking at the online
doc where it is unclear whether the capital letters denote
address@hidden' in Texinfo terms, or whether they should be taken
literally), plus it leaves the impression that each archive can
only have one mirror.
I agree, and I was specially reminded just recently why I also dislike
it.
