           One setting is provided to control the pipeline depth in cases
           where the remote server is not RFC conforming or buggy (such as
           Squid 2.0.2). Acquire::http::Pipeline-Depth can be a value from 0
           to 5 indicating how many outstanding requests APT should send. A
           value of zero MUST be specified if the remote host does not
           properly linger on TCP connections - otherwise data corruption will
           occur. Hosts which require this are in violation of RFC 2068.

I guess an alternative to trying to SRU this everywhere it affects images would be to ask Amazon to support RFC 2068?
