When a website is behind a CDN like Cloudflare there may be a "Browser Integrity Check" or other test applied to requests before they are allowed through to the server. Downloading via wget passes these tests as headers are set appropriately, however the Python urllib module may fail these tests unless additional headers are set. This causes Wget.checkstatus() to fail where Wget.download() would actually succeed. For Cloudflare in particular a valid User-Agent is needed, it's easy to add this to the headers in Wget.checkstatus(). The user agent string is copied from Wget._fetch_index().

Bitbake
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints. One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated html version at the Yocto Project website: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
Contributing
Please refer to http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org) but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
