Looking at ftp://ftp.cpan.org/pub/CPAN (which I suppose is the source for your 
mirror) I cannot find any bleeding-edge sources there.

Is there no way you can make the CPAN-mirror machine also rsync or mirror 
(part of) APC? I assume that the mirror machine has internet-access.

You could set up the mirror machine to only "synctree.pl" (from cron) and have 
your smoke boxen use sync_type => 'copy' (or even rsync  with two local paths 
if that 'll work over NFS).

If you want more info on this, just let me know.

good luck,

Abe
