Yes, it is supported, but recommended against, to avoid flooding the
up-to-date mirrors.

In IRC, Gavin noted that the list will only includes mirrors sync'd in
the last 24 hours. This information is self-reported, and the issue
is that mirrors reporting themselves as up-to-date aren't really so
(they lack the subversion directory).

The artifacts in question were added to www.apache.org/dist 5 days ago.
