I'm sure there's a more specific bug, but I can't find it, so I should mention
I submitted a patch for the http redirect thing
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/80135

That does not solve this bug (only makes it a little less severe). We still
need to solve this bug for the below case:

> *Person uploads a new version of an image file with different dimensions.

> until
> next time that page gets re-rendered.
