Gitweb complains "404 - No such project" when following links from Gmail

Gitweb experts,

I've seen the following error on all git web deployments I've tried, including the Linux Kernel and Android:

    /android/git /
   404 - No such project

Reproduce this by following this this link from the Gmail web app: http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=blob;f=core/java/android/hardware/SensorManager.java

Pasting the same link into a browser's address bar yields a valid page. Even reloading it yields a valid page.

Any ideas? I couldn't find the bug tracker for gitweb.

Thanks, Jesse
