It is unlikely this is a bug, it sounds like something is misconfigured.

The only thing that can cause this message is if connect() fails, ie the
other end is not responding to http requests or some such.

http and ftp use identical code for performing connections, so I'd say you
have having some sort of network configuration issue.
