Hrm. I'm on 5.2.1 and I also see this bug. It looks to be present in beta 2
and RC1. I think the href is screwed up. See 2.1.x
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

In 2.0.x we get

Does anyone know why that changed?
Digging in to it, looks to be that beta1 works, so was probably introduced
during the WMS refactoring. I'm pretty surprised no one has seen this
before though. It consistently fails with tiger_roads and probably any of
the rasters.
