mrepo fails to connect/mirror centos6 repositories without verbosity of 2 or greater

[jbury-zz]

I'm building out a new mrepo server running RHEL 6.4 with mrepo-0.8.8-1. When trying to update the repositories for CentOS 6 I receive the following error.

[root at host etc]# mrepo -u centos6-i386
centos6-i386: Updating CentOS 6 (i386)
mirror: Not connected
mrepo: Mirroring failed for http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6/updates/i386/Packages/ with message:
Failed with return code: 256
[root at host etc]#

If I use one level of verbosity I get the same error. If I use 2 or more levels of verbosity mrepo will connect and download the RPMs. Any ideas?

[root at host etc]# mrepo -uv centos6-i386
