I tried changing that (and updated, the Air-Gapped way, to

www-client/palemoon-27.0.3-r7

(which is my local bump of 
www-client/palemoon-27.0.3-r1 from unofficial)

, and the only difference is that now, the top dir
in /usr/portage/distfiles/ looks:

# ls -l /usr/portage/distfiles/git3-src\ EGIT_MIRROR_URI\=http\:/
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 3 portage portage 4096 2017-01-10 02:54 localhost
# 

while previously was:

EGIT_MIRROR_URI\=git\:/

instead of what is now:

EGIT_MIRROR_URI\=http\:/

The rest is all the same.

But, again, Palemoon works just fine. And my wonder about it still
remains. But it works, and seems a reliable method.

Just thought to make clear on this. This email should appear in reply to
where I explained it as really the best I could.
