Odd fetch failure when using https://git.FreeBSD.org/src.git ("curl 18 transfer closed with outstanding read data remaining")

On multiple system on the same local network, when I have:

[remote "freebsd"]
        fetch = +refs/notes/*:refs/notes/*
        url = https://git.FreeBSD.org/src.git
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/freebsd/*

I've been getting:

# git -C /usr/main-src/ fetch
error: RPC failed; curl 18 transfer closed with outstanding read data remaining
error: 59 bytes of body are still expected
fatal: expected flush after ref listing


But with:

[remote "freebsd"]
        fetch = +refs/notes/*:refs/notes/*
        url = ssh://anongit@git.FreeBSD.org/src.git
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/freebsd/*

I got on those same systems:

# git -C /usr/main-src/ fetch
