[OE-core] Fetch failure for source at kernel.org

I'm finally trying to get started with oe-core. I'm using a setup 
created with the setup-script created by Koen. Everything looks ok until 
it tried to build cpufrequtils. The recipe tries to fetch the source 
from a git repo at kernel.org. Obviously, the fetch fails.

What is odd, in the "good old days" I would expect this config to fall 
back and use the Angstrom source mirror, but apparently this is not the 
case with oe-core.

Is this a bug or a feature? If this is a bug, is there a plan to fix it? 
If it is a feature, how are we supposed to do builds if servers go away? 
What do we do about GPL compliance?

Thanks,

Philip
