Not so fast :)  The Handbook is just the messenger; if this mirror
is really no longer available (it does not have a DNS address record,
at least), it should be removed from sysinstall's mirrors list, too.

This means the attached additional patch.

Pending approval from my mentor, Ceri, I will commit your Handbook
patch.

G'luck,
Peter

Ops, you are right :) sysinstall was out of my mind...AFAIK that
mirror never existed...it was added to the handbook 4 months ago
(dunno why), but never appeared in the nameserver...and now I
found the time to fill a PR ;)

Today's excuse: Communist revolutionaries taking over the server room and demanding all the computers in the building or they shoot the sysadmin. Poor misguided fools.

Thanks for submitting this one!

The patch to sysinstall was also committed; ftp2.it.FreeBSD.org is 
now gone! :)
