 The Streams HTTP transport doesnt abide by the maximum redirections
 properly.

 It appears, that the redirection limit is placed on a per-access count,
 rather than a per-redirection count. So the first request is counted in
 the number of redirections.

 If you request a page with 'redirection = 1' on a document which redirects
 exactly once, It fails with a too-many redirects error.

 My suggestion for fixing this is to simply increase the redirections by
 one on the stream wrapper creation..
