Well, that's bad news. Does "git log --all --parents | grep d2cf08bb67e4b7da33a250127aab784f1f2f58d3" reveal any places that refer to it?
It sounds a bit like your git-svn thinks something maps on to that commit id, but a previous 'git gc' or something has thrown it away. However, that doesn't explain why earlier git versions don't have this problem.

If you retrieve the latest version of git and then git revert the above commit, does that fix the problem, at least?
Is it possible you have some weird branches outside of the refs/remotes tree (either in .git itself, or in .git/refs/*) that you forgot about, and which the new version of git-svn is finding somehow?
