I see that too. Here are some things that can be done about it.
Whitelist monty-python.gnu.org in your access lists.

I know what you mean, but I feel this is playing with symptoms. Given
the amount of spam gnu.org relays, the auto*tools's list policy finally

Face it, this is not 1994 anymore, the internet has lost its innocence,
and badly maintained open lists like the auto*tools lists on gnu.org are
a relict of the past.
