I tried it several times but I can't reproduce a 429. The way the retry
code is written it should retry those transfers if no curl error
occurred. For example a curl error could occur if the output path
/tmp/MediaWiki2LaTeXImages-3943f5a7379c6219/ does not exist at the time
the output file is opened.

Run curl in verbose mode (curl -v) and save the output (1>out 2>&1) and
search for 'retry' and '429' and maybe there is something in the verbose
output that would indicate what happened.
