There are _no_ pdiffs for stable.

It does, however, correctly send it for files such as Release.gpg, even to the redirected host. APT guys: perhaps someone of you have an idea as to what is happening? Running apt-get update twice in a row, using http.d.n, and stable, will result in the Packages file being downloaded both times. Even if unchangeed.
