have you used a header checker to verify it is only 2 redirects?
are they both 301s?
does one go through another domain or hostname?
why isn't it 1 redirect?
=8)

i would be surprised to hear google doesn't follow 2 redirects unless there is some reason not to trust one of them.

after you tried fetch as googlebot did you use Submit to Google index?

it's not uncommon for GWT to report errors incorrectly.
