On http://wwwmaster.postgresql.org/download/mirrors-ftp I see the
message "You have used this mirror before: United Kingdom" and a few
seconds later, it redirects me to
http://www.postgresql.org/redir/398/f/ which doesn't work.

However, if I click on the UK ftp link itself, it actually uses the
wwwmaster subdomain, and the rest of the URL is identical.
