I think it's tricky because https://dev.mysql.com/ does respond, with
plausible content and no errors -- it just happens to be a clone of
http://www.mysql.com/ rather than http://dev.mysql.com/, which is probably
a simply misconfiguration on the MySQL people's part (and might have
happened after you first created the rule).

Maybe we should write to them and ask them to make https://dev correspond
to http://dev.
