The file should be placed in SRC_URI, and emirrordist will take care of
fetching it.

Yes, this was noted in the top mail.

GLEP only covers how regular distfile fetching works. Third-party
mirrors are out of scope, and all the people working on it and reviewing
it have missed the problem. That said, this can't be fixed within
bounds defined by PMS.
Given that mirror://gentoo is discouraged since at least 2011, I don't
see a big deal here. One day it'll stop working; we should stop using
it before then.
