There were problems with the last several snapshots, up to the one of July 21. It turns out it was grabbing an old branch of the tree, without any updates since late January. Also, there was a small fix to the SSL code last Saturday. See if the htdig-3.2.0b4-20020728 snapshot doesn't fix most or all of these problems. If the problem with redirects persists, try running with more than one -v, to see what URL htdig gets from the redirect. -- Gilles R.
