Doh!  Guess I should have read further down on the Mirroring_How-To page:

"The book directories are the only part we offer for mirror. The Project
Gutenberg catalog in XML/RDF is in the root directory of the generated
content, if you would like to make your own search software. We do not
distribute the central search software or Web pages used at
www.gutenberg.org, however."

So I guess I have to ask... where did you get whatever code you're
using?  Or are you trying to do some sort of proxy magic and the request
to the hidden service is still hitting www.gutenberg.org?
