I ended up with honoring the first element of the URI, since support for
mirror:// URIs in (guix gnu-maintenance) was added recently (see commit
bdaef69556f68595e5ec0db1710bf8ad208abe20, "gnu-maintenance: Allow mirror
URLs to fallback to the generic HTML updater.").

The fix is pushed with commit 2a7f031ca9.  Let me know if anything is
still causing problems!
