The same problem affected emulators/xzx.  The server uses 302 redirects
to point you to a download mirror.  In the case of xzx I set

FETCH_CMD=	/usr/bin/fetch -Rr

to allow it to follow the redirect.

Or, you could copy some of the mirrors into MASTER_SITES, if they won't
disappear frequently.  wget shows the redirect URL.
