Sourcemirrors and tarballstashes in OE provide tarballs, not 1:1 mirrors 
of the scms. Had you actually read the error message you would have 
noticed that it did something like:

1) try source mirror for tarball -> FAIL
2) try upstream repo -> FAIL
3) error out

if 1) fails it means the autobuilder hasn't build and mirror that rev 
yet. 2) means an error on your end, be it corporate firewall or the 
infamous --tags bug in bitbake 1.8.10.

Note that the angstrom sourcemirror has been real good at hiding the 
bitbake 1.8.10 bug.
