Note on https://launchpad.net/products/planet/+bug/42943/ that I think
our handling of 301s is actually... well, not wrong, but sometimes
inconvienient.

blogspot.com has been known to send 301 codes redirecting Planet to
blogger.com/maintainence.html. Planet does not seem able to recover
gracefully when the feed is back in place the next morning! Should we
recover gracefully? If so, we need to rethink the "move/hardlink the
cache file to the new location" logic.
