No, that issue has now been fixed.

IIUC the problem is that the choices list for mirror/(http|ftp)/countries 
now contains country _names_ instead of country _codes_.

However, the code in choose-mirror.c that builds the mirror list for a 
selected country requires the country _code_ as input.

IMO the proper solution for this bug is to have the basic choices list for 
mirror/(http|ftp)/countries list country codes and to add a 
Choices-en.UTF-8 containing the English country names.
