You probably should re-download the file, even if you are only missing
part of the regression test. You might want to take a look at
downloading it with something like wget however (assuming that you are
downloading on some sort of a *nix box). wget will resume partial
downloads when called with the -c flag. It's a life saver over crappy
links.

Six hours is a long time. Even over a modem. Perhaps you should try
a different mirror.
