I have been trying emerge -u world since yesterday afternoon, but many packages are failing to download, giving me a 404 file not found error. rsync works fine.
I have just tried doing one of the packages to be updated, by doing
Code:
emerge -u openoffice-bin
Emerge has now getting dev-java/blackdown-jdk-1.4.1. It had the same error for http, then has apparently tried ftp, where it is now downloading slowly.
Why can't I download the sources using http?

have you try the mirrorselect tool ?

(emerge mirroselect && man mirrorselect.)
(an advice is mirrorselect -a -s3 when emerging stages, for 3 fast ftp servers)
