The original problem was that it did choke on the redirect from http to https 
instead of following it. Which is probably OK for this use case.

Using https URLs will work for all Wikimedia wikis. I heard this had the effect 
that the links in the sidebar would also become https instead of protocol 
relative, but this is not the case for ru.wikinews.org. Why did we not force 
https for all interwikis then?

Should we change the default for Http::get for protocol relative to https?

For those projects that were not switched to https only using the protocol 
relative URL in the sidebar would be the correct behavior. For https only wikis 
that would also be acceptable although https would be preferable over protocol 
relative.
