I have pushed support for SHA-224, SHA-384 and SHA-512 in TLS:

   http://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git/commitdiff/b1caa48

The default is to include support for these algorithms, which adds 
around 1.5kB to the binary size.  To reduce this size impact, individual 
algorithms can be disabled via config/crypto.h.

iPXE does now successfully download from https://economics.indiana.edu/boot
