Sourceforge is meant to do that itself. Unfortunately half their
mirrors don't actually work and aren't ever removed from the rotation,
so downloads.sourceforge.net doesn't always work. Edit Compile.conf
and change your $httpSourceforge to point to a local mirror that works
for you; everything from Sourceforge will use that mirror from then
on.

It is possible to specify mirror URLs in recipes, but we usually let
existing mirror systems do their work when available. Better and more
generalised mirror support would be welcome if somebody wanted to do
up a patch.
