Yes, we need to remove some of them, from the list now I know that:

ftp.br.freebsd.org (ufrj.br) is up to date
ftp2.br.freebsd.org (matrix.com.br) is up to date
ftp3.br.freebsd.org (unicamp.br) is up to date
ftp4.br.freebsd.org (RNP) seems to be dead since their lost the sysadmin
ftp5.br.freebsd.org (GNS.com.br) stoped to mirror since 2.2.5 
ftp6.br.freebsd.org (ufrj.br) seems to be dead too

I have a substitute for ftp4 on another site but the only solution
for 5/6 is to remove them from DNS and alias to 1/2, but this
take us to another problem, I don't know why but root.cdrom.com
seems unable to refresh the DNS maps for br.freebsd.org since
1999060700:

dig @who.cdrom.com br.freebsd.org soa

I'll update the map here, anyway
