*shrug* go read RFC2616, libfetch is sending a perfectly correct
request but Apache's reply is incorrect: the body indicates a
redirect, but the headers don't reflect this, and there is absolutely
no way for libfetch to know that what it received was not the intended
document.

BTW, except for .netrc support, 4.8 has exactly the same fetch and
libfetch as 5.0.  4.7 OTOH has an old version w/o SSL support and with
a number of known bugs.
