I was just banging my head not being able to fetch the latest U-Boot
stuff, running into the same issue, and successfully worked around it by
using the git:// URL. However it wasn't until I wanted to post about
this on this mailing list that I found this thread :)

Anyways it seems like this issue already persists for one month without
a fix. For folks behind draconian corporate firewalls the http:// URLs
are often easier to use, so this is a bit of a trap....
