Most recently, octave-optim failed to mirror because of this, and I
remember seeing a few reports of issues with other ports.
I guess we have two choices:
1. always avoid redirects (will require work on many older ports
including ones using the octave portgroup), or
2. try to identify the bad mirrors and remove them until/unless they are
fixed. The problematic one for octave-optim was `phoenixnap`.
