I believe that some of the mitigations for scraping have affected this (but I may be completely wrong about this). You can fetch from the https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc mirror to get the objects and then update the refs from `gcc.gnu.org` without having to negotiate so many objects (which is what seems to trigger the network sadness). There was a thread in the past week or so asking about this as well. --Ben
