Indeed, the default configuration uses modulesets in my Github repository. When you run gtk-osx-build-setup.sh, they're copied to `/Source/jhbuild/modulesets. If  you include 
moduleset=os.path.join(os.environ["HOME"], "Source", "jhbuild", "modulesets", "gtk-osx-build.modules")
then jhbuild won't need to access the net for the modulesets.

If you use multiple build directories, you may want to set tarballdir=/some/path so that you download tarballs only once. 

You can also pass --no-network to jhbuild build or set nonetwork=True to your .jhbuildrc-custom to tell jhbuild not to try to download anything, nor to check repositories for updates.
