When requesting the URL http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/snapshot/blead.tar.gz for blead perl, it is redirected to an https URL. This is a problem because HTTP::Tinyish uses the original URL to determine whether it needs to find a user agent with HTTPS support, so it may select one without that support and then fail because of the redirect.
