[mirror-admin] Only Private Mirror is showing up in the mirror list.

There's some bug related to metalinks specifically (which is what yum is
using). I likely introduced it with the MM 1.4.3 upgrade this week.  This
is the second report of failure, and I can clearly see that metalinks only
are returning a single mirror for some users, while mirrorlist returns the
whole list as expected.   It looks to be only for hosts that fall within a
netblock of a private mirror.

I am travelling with my family today, so offline mostly.  I'll look at it
and resolve ASAP.

Thanks,
Matt
