[Distutils] bootstrap.pypa.io is down

[Ian Cordasco]

If bootstrap.pypa.io sits behind fastly, a 503 would indicate that it
couldn't reach the server. That means that it is either exactly what Nick
pointed out or a semi-normal error from fastly. There's a reason pip
retries package downloads when it sees a 503 response status code.
