define 'TestProject' do
  project.version = '0.1'

  compile.with transitive('net.databinder:databinder-app-ao:1.2-alpha1')

  package :jar
end

If you run that, Buildr eventually complains and gives up when it tries to
download *databinder-parent-1.2-alpha1.jar *(I think that's the file
anyway).  It's 100% repeatable for me.
