Doh! Apparently, both of the mirrors I have configured are broken:
GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://lug.mtu.edu/gentoo/ http://cosmos.illinois.edu/pub/gentoo/"
The first one is out-of-date and doesn't contain the the last few
versions of ImageMagick. The second is just plain AWOL.
I've updated make.conf with a couple mirrors that I've manually
verified, and now my update is building as expected. I guess I need
to add verifying mirrors are present and correct to the list of normal
maintainence activities.
