Do the mirrors sync in a way that lets the filename become visible 
before the sync is actually complete?

I've had mixed results, even from boxes on the same network, behind the 
same proxy.  Perhaps coincidentally all x86_64 versions 'just worked' 
with only the 'yum update glibc\*' done first.  The 32-bit versions 
mostly had some missing packages that I had to exclude to get the first 
update to run, then after a 'yum clean all' and a few retries they would 
find the rest.  Apparently the clean is necessary to make a box change 
its mind about a previously determined fastest-mirror - but I thought it 
was supposed to still check others for missing packages.
