  I ran "eclean -d distfiles" and it said...
" * Total space that has been freed in distfiles directory: 155.8 M"

  Next, I did an "emerge --sync" on the secondary machine which uses the
main machine as a mirror.  I followed that with a --fetchonly emerge.
All the files appeared to come from the "first mirror", i.e.
http://192.168.123.252:1024 and they came through at approx 11.15 mega-
*BYTES* per second!!!  I have boa serving out /usr/portage/distfiles on
my main machine.  So that worked out OK.
