Some of them are probably transient errors; the 0 file size one I got was the
file that came back from one particular sourceforge mirror which I imagine
will
get fixed on its own at some point.

The 200 html file was one of the apache mirrors that had been taken over by a
domain squatter and was returning some search page for any request it got.
Obviously a bug and it was reported as such and you removed that mirror from
the
list, but in the meantime all casts that hit that mirror were failing when
they
could've (feasibly) gone on to other mirrors.
