I looked at method/http.cc and there is a check for last modified to be
0 or not:

      if (Itm->LastModified != 0)
      {
         sprintf(Buf,"If-Modified-Since: 
%s\r\n",TimeRFC1123(Itm->LastModified).c_str());
         Req += Buf;
      }

I guess that the LastModified field is not correctly initialized, as
this changelog entry states it has been fixed:


apt (0.7.7) unstable; urgency=low
...
  * methods/https.cc:
    - only send LastModified if we actually have a file
