Is there an easy way to get URL's of the dist files?  For instance if a tar ball isn't on a certain mirror, portage will try another mirror.  It would be cool to get portage to create a url list with which you can just wget -i <file> at work; or where ever you have a fast connection; this way you can rest assure that all your downloads will complete.
