Brr, url in the last example was incorrect.
With correct URL, I get the following:
$ rpm -qip
http://abf-downloads.rosalinux.ru/rosa2012.1/repository/x86_64/media/main/updates/urpmi-6.71-60-rosa2012.1.noarch.rpm

However, with rpm5.org it works fine:

Summary : A C library for parsing command line parameters.
Architecture: i386
Description :
Popt is a C library for parsing command line parameters. Popt was
heavily influenced by the getopt() and getopt_long() functions, but it
improves on them by allowing more powerful argument expansion. Popt
can parse arbitrary argv[] style arrays and automatically set
variables based on command line arguments. Popt allows command line
arguments to be aliased via configuration files and includes utility
functions for parsing arbitrary strings into argv[] arrays using
shell-like rules.
What can be the reason? Why does rpm -qip http://<bla-bla-bla> works
with one site and doesn't work with the other?
