Doug,
A few other projects have a mirrorsURL attribute (the Platform does) but there's a typo in the CDT one. You have "formatf=xml" instead of "format=xml" (note the extra "f" at the end of "formatf").  When I tried these two urls just through the browser:

• (with the extra f) http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/tools/cdt/releases/europa/site.xml&formatf=xml&protocol=http&countryCode=us&timeZone=-5&responseType=xml
  I get an HTML page back
• (with no extra f) http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/tools/cdt/releases/europa/site.xml&format=xml&protocol=http&countryCode=us&timeZone=-5&responseType=xml
  I get an XML page back

So I think this is the problem: the CDT site.xml file needs to have "format=xml" instead of "formatf=xml".

You probably also do not need the "protocol=http".

And it looks like the bits were correctly Europa built even with this failure - the Europa-matic just didn't use a mirror.

Given that I haven’t changed that in months, and it appears that all the bits are in the right place anyway, that this failure has always been there.
