For about the past week, sup has been failing for me.  I see the
following four lines consistently on stderr:

SUP: Read error on network: Connection reset by peer
SUP: Premature EOF on network input
SUP: Network write timed out
SUP: Network write timed out

while on stdout, I get (for example)

done

and the supfile is the same as I've been using for ages:

current release=allsrc host=sup.netbsd.org hostbase=/ftp/pub base=/sources/sup/sup/netbsd prefix=/sources/supped/netbsd use-rel-suffix
current release=doc host=sup.netbsd.org hostbase=/ftp/pub base=/sources/sup/sup/netbsd prefix=/sources/supped/netbsd use-rel-suffix
#current release=security host=sup.netbsd.org hostbase=/ftp/pub base=/usr prefix=/usr backup use-rel-suffix
#current release=othersrc host=sup.netbsd.org hostbase=/ftp/pub base=/usr prefix=/usr backup use-rel-suffix

Is this something I haven't done that I should have, or what?  It'd be
nice to get supping again....
