That is bad news. The bug I fixed should exist since pacman 3.3.0
(since we moved to libfetch).
It is quite strange that you cannot reproduce the problem with that.

Any chances you could try the patch I posted in the bug report ?

You will have to get pacman 3.3.1 PKGBUILD though abs, and edit the
PKGBUILD to apply that patch.
