Public bug reported: If no user-data is provided for RunInstances, boto.utils.get_instance_userdata() will hang for a very long time. This is because boto.utils.retry_url() handles a 404 (which is a valid response if the user did not supply any userdata) just like a network failure (which is usually caused by attempting to access the userdata service before networking is up or before it's been populated and made available). This needs to be fixed so that a 404 makes it bail out immediately.
