  obviously, the fetch of ffmpeg eventually works, but any value in
cleaning up the initial fetch errors?

Is it April 1st in your locale????????

This is normal operation of fetch module. Which is long documented.

This is normal operation. The reasoning is that we want to be good to the 
upstream infrastructure and don't want all OE users hammer on the SCM Servers 
of the upstream project to checkout a static tarball.

This is why OE tries to download a snapshot from a tarball stash, in your case 
two have been tried and then it falls back to the SCM of the upstream 
directly.

Now one can argue that another output on the console would be nice... but so 
far no one has been bothered enough to do it. Help is greatly appreciated and 
I can point you to the places in bitbake and classes/base.bbclass.

possible output

Trying to find tarball for ffmpeg revision XYZ:
    ... trying www.foo-mirror.org/... FAIL
   .... trying wwww.bla-mirror.org/ ... FAIL

Couldn't find a tarball for ffmpeg revision XYZ, checking it out..

wget starts

  i suspected it was something like that, i just wasn't sure whether,
*eventually*, tarballs are uploaded to satisfy those first attempts.
in any event, it clearly didn't stop the build.

p.s.  "NOTE: Running task 6568 of 10078 ..." on my way to
beagleboard-demo-image -- so far, so good.  and guile-native has long
since been built.  yippee.  thanks for your patience.
