Now, contrarywise, if I create a file "multi.repo" containing:
[spp]
name=HP-ServicePackforProLiant-x86_64
baseurl=http://free.linux.hp.com/SDR/repo/spp/rhel/6Server/x86_64/current/
enabled=1
priority=99
gpgcheck=0

And then do the command:
reposync -l -n -d --repoid=spp --download_path=/opt/site/tmp --config=multi.repo -a x86_64
the command completes without error and 

ls -l  /opt/site/tmp/spp

Which is what I wanted the cobbler command to collect.

Is this a problem with cobbler or with the repository I am trying to mirror ?

That's interesting, I did some experimenting to see how it behaves and during this, I could see that almost any yumopts you put into place *are* propogated to the json file but then not to the repo file.
 
 My opinion? (Worth nothing.) Yes, it's a bug.

 I'm *GUESSING* here but when poking around in the code it looks like the only options it really recognizes here are enabled, priority and gpgcheck=1.
 
 It seems that unless you specifically say 'gpgcheck=1' it just uses 'gpgcheck=0' automatically.
 It even says: # FIXME: potentially might want a way to turn this on/off on a per-repo basis
 
 So... I think this runs on both sides of the lines, a bug report because the feature was never implemented. ;)
