Yeah, there are some issues with that host according to our monitoring
system.  Seems to be on the entire host and not just the VM, so it' not a
trivial fix. 

However, if you're gonig for new releases, don't use ftp-archives. That one
is for *old* releases. Use your closest mirror (find one on the website),
or if you absolutely have to, use ftp.postgresql.org.
