For the same mirrors, /print returns the contents of /print.css as well.
So effectively, on these mirrors any URL shortcut that mostly matches (eg. print -> print.css, functions -> functions.js) a file in the web root, the contents of the file is always returned.

After some examination (thanks erigol), it appears the cause of this is not disabling MultiViews in the Apache configuration of these mirrors.
To fix this, the listed mirrors need to re-read the mirroring guidelines and have the following line in their Apache configuration:
"Options -Indexes -Multiviews"

Re-opening.
MultiViews may fix some of the listed mirrors but not all.
After some discussion with a mirror admin and some experiments, one of the mirrors affected (us4) fixed itself overnight without any user input.

Affected mirrors all send the following in the headers: (for requesting /print)
TCN: choice
Vary: negotiate
Content-location: /print.css 

This indicates some form of content negotiation.
us4 which "magically fixed itself overnight" is now sending:
TCN: choice
Vary: Cookie
Content-location is missing.

Still happening at least with the fi mirror, fi2 doesn't seem to be quite operational atm.

This bug is still occuring :/
From the very little time I've looked at it, I still can't work out what the heck is causing this.

We need to add this to our mirror-test script..

This bug has been fixed in CVS. Since the websites are not directly
updated from the CVS server, the fix might need some time to spread
across the globe to all mirror sites, including PHP.net itself.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP.net better.

Added /functions as a test case to our mirror-test-bot
