You know, it may have actually changed on the server, it happens..
wakko{jgg}~/work/apt/build/bin#./apt-get -o acquire::ftp::timeout=1 update
Get:1 ftp://gluck.debian.org stable/main Packages [789kB]
Err ftp://gluck.debian.org stable/main Packages
Data socket timed out
wakko{jgg}#TZ=utc ls -l apt/lists/partial/
total 236
-rw-r--r-- 1 jgg jgg 236528 Jan 10 15:30 gluck.debian.org_debian_dists_stable_main_binary-alpha_Packages
lftp gluck.debian.org:/debian/dists/stable/main/binary-alpha> ls
-rw-r--r-- 1 1176 1176 2818270 Jan 10 15:30 Packages
