You don't specify what hostname keyserver.siccegge.net presents
a valid for which is kind of key.

If it does an http redirect to https://keyserver.siccegge.de
which presents a certificate for keyserver.siccegge.de then it is
keyserver.sicegge.de that will go into the https only list which is fine
since keyserver.siccegge.de supports https.

If it does an http redirect to https://pool.sks-keyservers.net then
unless keyserver.siccege.de has a certificate in that name the browser
will start complaining loudly and won't even see the HSTS header.
