I'm not sure what problem people are having currently.  An empy DL_DIR
build with DISTRO=angstrom-2008.1 and MACHINE=beagleboard does this:
NOTE: package fakeroot-native-1_1.14.5-r0.0: task do_fetch: Started
--2012-01-17 13:42:12--
http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20110301/pool/main/f/fakeroot/fakeroot_1.14.5.orig.tar.bz2

Which works and finds the expected file with expected hashes.  This is
because the fakeroot recipe doesn't use DEBIAN_MIRROR now but directly
uses a date-encoded URL on snapshot.debian.org.
