I'm slightly surprised, although no problem with GUB _really_
surprises me.  Mirrors occasionally die out, but I wouldn't have
expected that one to go.

Try finding a different mirror (use the normal kernel.net mirror
service web pages to find one), then edit
  gub/specs/lilypond-headers-*.py
  (possibly the wrong name)
to point to the new location, then try "make bootstrap" again.

If it works, then we could apply that patch to the main repo.
