Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  Fixed in reflector-2012.7.15-1.

Note that it is possible to filter all of the mirrors if you use stringent criteria.

Also note that pacman does not support rsync mirrors so you should use "-p http" when automatically generating a mirror list.
