I think because mirror.dulug.duke.edu is running lighthttpd;
download.fedoralegacy.org is running apache, and they act differently --
lighthttpd is being pedantic about the URL encoding. Actually, now that I
look at the RFC, maybe so pedantic that it's wrong. But my brain is fried
from this week so I'm in no position to judge.

Anyway, if you use FTP mirrors, you'll avoid this problem.

Given the afore-mentioned state of my brain, I'll avoid considering what if
anything yum should do about this (or what the current version and
urlgrabber and all that *do* do).
