Now, I'm wondering whether it wouldn't be easier to add in /etc/hosts an
entry for a.u.c. It should work as long as the URL are preserved:

# temporarily make a.u.c point to old-releases
91.189.88.35 archive.ubuntu.com

This way, do-release-upgrade should work now that both feisty and gutsy
are in old-releases. However, upgrading from gutsy to hardy will need
the work-around I described in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source
/update-manager/+bug/153980/comments/81 adapted to gutsy/hardy.

BTW, make sure you remove the hosts entry once the upgrade is performed.
