Olli, with all due respect, I think this is a bit too much.  There are two
ways to solve this problem correctly: talk to nVidia and expedite that they
fix their software distribution across all MASTER_SITE_NVIDIA; or hardcode
working ones, like Alexander is doing now.  His explanation is quite clear
why he prefers this way, and it's fair enough.

Creating MASTER_SITE_NVIDIA_SETTINGS/IGNORE_MASTER_SITE_NVIDIA_SETTINGS for
a single port only (with just two URLs) does not buy us anything useful.
