I just checked a wireshark capture of Firefox connecting both to
http://gmail.com and https://gmail.com.  In the former case, the browser is
redirected to https://mail.google.com/mail.

In the latter case, I surmise the browser is being redirected, because I see:
DNS query gmail.com
TLS connection to gmail.com
DNS query mail.google.com
TLS connection mail.google.com

In the first TLS connection, to gmail.com, the server presents a certificate
with CN=gmail.com, the browser is able to verify the certificate before
handling the redirect.  Curiously, no verification for this certificate appears
in our logs, which appears to be a vulnerability.

In any event, my money's on the redirection handling being the source of the
problem.
