Thanks, I've tried it -- it works, sort of. Now, since Zope prints a <BASE HREF> pointing to the production server, the mirroring client will get confused when rendering embedded links and items e.g. images since it will try to fetch it off the production server. Of course, I suppose you could force your client (wget or pavuk etc.) to ignore the <BASE HREF> or something.

And now, back to the trailing slash issue. :)
