I have been using git on my OS X box for quite a while, and that commit appears to be nearly two months old. I have yet to see any packing errors in any of my repositories. (This is with -O2, which appears to be the default.)

My gcc reports itself as build 5367 instead of 5250. Perhaps there is a compiler error in an older copy of the DevTools?

Also, did this segfault occur with any publicly available repo or is it your own work?
