I was unable to reproduce the error with the same repo and same Git version on a different machine (Debian Squeeze x64 on a AMD Phenom x6 1045T).

Me, too. Based on out current observations I'd assume one of:

a) a rare, timing-sensitive bug in Git b) a compiler/distribution/environment sensitive issue c) or defect/buggy Hardware (CPU, Memory)

The default. I have 12GB RAM.

So I'll try to rule out b) and c) as far as I can and report in if I have any new findings.

Nevertheless thank you very much for your extensive assistance!
