Comment:
I was under the impression that the plan was to swap it out to https://repo-default.voidlinux.org/distfiles/ once the infra people around to it. That is still my preference.

I'm not sure relying on runtime generated patches generated from a mirror not affiliated GNU (or us for that matter) really does much for us aside from breaking build when github or git changes the way patches generate (or if the mirror goes down).

The https://git.vuxu.org/mirror/glibc/ was created to be used in the PR but I didn't use it because at the time the snapshots generated broken tarballs and took forever to download. Not sure about now, but trying to download a snapshot resulted in my getting an error: `Sorry, the page you are looking for is currently unavailable.
