Of course, your mirror may vary as to availability
(as I recall, in my particular case, my test VM
for rawhide did not get the update for a day
or so).

It does bring up a potential point that perhaps
Fedora should have an additional repo (let's
call it "emergency fixes") that is not community
mirrored (so any mirrors for load sharing
would be fully controlled by the project), with
a short refresh time, and containing only
packages that need to get out immediately.
If a critical fix needs to get out to the
community it could be (almost) immediately
available.  After a few days (when public
mirrors would be expected to have updated)
those packages could be removed (reducing
the load on this repo).  For the next time, of
course (and there will be a next time, there
is always a next time).
