I can confirm this on jaunty. After signing up for ubuntuone, the repository that's enabled is https, and apt-file gives this error:

$ sudo apt-file update
W: Don't know how to handle https: Bad file descriptor

This wasn't present before adding the https repository.

  * Add options to diffindex-download to set CA certificates and to
    disable certificate verification.
  * Don't use su-to-root in update-notifier anymore and drop Suggests: menu.
    LP: #508089
  * Abort 'apt-file update' if the user pressed Control-C. LP: #499039
  * Don't append an OS error string to an error or warning message if the
    message has nothing to do with the last OS operation.
  * Convert to source format 3.0 (native).
