I agree, it looks like the automatic redirector has changed behavior. It still sends you to an HTML page for the mirror, but previously that link would cause it to redirect straight to the download. While the script can fallback to archive.apache.org, it doesn't because the HTML downloads successfully -- just is not the distribution! Either we detect this or have to hack this more to get the mirror URL from the redirector, then attach it to the path.
