OK, four/five - move gcc/cygwin to sourceforge or gnu.org.

Six (I forgot about this) - set up multiple IP#s on sourceware.
1 for sourceware, 1 for gcc.gnu.org, 1 for cygwin.cygnus.com.
I believe wuftpd or proftpd can support virtual hosts when multiple
IP#s are present, so you can require someone to go to ftp://gcc.gnu.org
to get access to /pub/gcc and ftp://cygwin.cygnus.com to get access
to /pub/cygwin.  Allow only mirror sites to have access to those two
'ftp sites', and ease/drop restrictions on the sourceware 'ftp site'.

The problem is entirely with gcc/cygwin - reduce the ftp load of those
two (both of which have extensive mirroring networks) and the bandwidth
problems evaporate.

FWIW I occasionally read some mailing list archives via the web on
sourceware, and I can also attest that the bandwidth has gone to
crap, especially of late.
