Not quite.  There, the HEAD reply succeeds, but doesn't tell the file
length.  Rhythmbox reports a failure, but the file actually does
download successfully, and if you edit rhythmdb.xml to change the status
code from "failed" to "complete", you can play the podcast.

Here, the server replies with an error when you try to issue a HEAD.
gnomevfs-info also reports failure:

$ gnomevfs-info \
'http://www.sciam.com/podcast/podcast.mp3?e_id=FBAD66D5-E7F2-99DF-3C650E02F372F1BF&ref=p_rss'
Error: Unsupported operation

The fix is probably to make Rhythmbox try to download the file even if
the HEAD request fails or doesn't report all the information Rhythmbox
would like, which would also take care of Gnome#378155 too.
