Listmates,

I did a fresh install of 2009.08 on a new box and I am getting a weird pacman 
error where pacman doesn't recognize the first "Server" statement in 
mirrorlist. (2009.08 installed perfectly) All 3 of my other arch boxes work 
fine with the mirrorlist file and do not give the error. I have even copied 
the mirrorlist from one of my other boxes to the new box and the error still 
occurs. Even though I get the error, pacman works just fine. The error is:

error: config file /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist, line 193: directive 'Server' not 
recognized

Line 193 is just the first sever in mirrorlist:

192 # United States
193 Server = http://mirrors.gigenet.com/archlinux/$repo/os/i686
194 Server = http://archlinux.unixheads.org/$repo/os/i686

Any ideas?

The pacman.log.bz2 and messages.log.bz2 for the install are here:
