That was also my "solution" so far, however, it seems you can tell curl
to wait longer:

NIX_CURL_FLAGS='-m 600' nix-pull \
  http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/nixpkgs/stdenv/channel/latest/MANIFEST

If you need to run as sudo, then first sudo -i as the env var will not
make it into the sudo'ed environment:

sudo -i
NIX_CURL_FLAGS='-m 600' nix-pull \
  http://hydra.nixos.org/jobset/nixpkgs/stdenv/channel/latest/MANIFEST
