I have the SAME problem with ALL commits, ONLY the 2.4.x machine, but git-core/cg tools is OK. All git/cg/gitweb is good for other 2.6.x machines.

you can browse the two gitweb site:

2.4.27 http://www.foresee.com.cn:8888/git/?p=gcc/.git;a=shortlog 2.6.16 http://www.foresee.com.cn:9999/git/?p=gcc/.git;a=shortlog
