I am not an expert, but I guess this depends on who is enforcing the SSL redirection. If someone untrusted can be a man-in-the-middle between your clients and http://pypi.gocept.com, then this man-in-the-middle should be able to redirect your HTTP-only clients anywhere else.

I would venture that the best thing to do, if feasible, is to get your clients to point strictly to https://pypi.gocept.com and test that pip >= 1.3 verifies the SSL connection.
