It occurred to me that it would be a good and useful idea to weight
the randomness such that certain favoured hosts have a greater chance
of being the first host tried.

This makes the script a little more useful (as opposed to just
being a toy).

Just change the multiplicative factor to increase the weighting
factor.  Order hosts in the set line from most to least favoured.  As
written, this gives cvsup7 and cvsup8 the greatest chance of being the
first hosts tried.

For even more fun, make this automatically keep a running track record
of download speed and have it adjust the host weighting accordingly.

OK.  I said I'd clean this up and send this out.  Well,  I didn't get
as much ceanup done as I'd have liked.  The order of hosts is
arbitrary and works for me.  I'm sure this could be improved,
especially to make the order random.
