Come to find out it actually wasn't a bug with the servers but with the
cookies being passed to curl (or wget). Now that there are multiple
apache servers behind autopkgtest.ubuntu.com we need to also specify the
server for which the session cookie is valid. My autopkgtest.cookie file
now contains the following additional line:
autopkgtest.ubuntu.com TRUE / TRUE 0 SRVNAME S3
The current possibilities for SRVNAME are S2 or S3.
I've updated my merge proposal to retry-autopkgtest-regressions to
include setting the SRVNAME in the cookie.
Cheers,
