[xml/sgml-pkgs] Bug#679867: libxml2: "failed to load external entity" for HTTPS

[Chris Adams]

This is becoming a bigger problem as a greater percentage of the web moves
over to HTTPS. I was trying to work on an IETF RFC draft and that's no
longer possible using libxml2 because URLs like
http://xml.resource.org/public/rfc/bibxml/reference.RFC.1321.xml now
unconditionally redirect to HTTPS.
