Hmm. Hold on. While `p4d` now no longer segfaults, it looks as if `git p4` is completely broken (see https://github.com/dscho/git/actions/runs/3538941550/jobs/5940295721#step:4:2005):

  failure: t9800.3 basic git p4 clone
  	git p4 clone --dest="$git" //depot &&
  	test_when_finished cleanup_git &&
  	(
  		cd "$git" &&
  		git log --oneline >lines &&
  		test_line_count = 1 lines
  	)
  + git p4 clone --dest=/home/runner/work/git/git/t/trash directory.t9800-git-p4-basic/git //depot
  Perforce db files in '.' will be created if missing...
  fatal: 'p4' appears to be a git command, but we were not
  able to execute it. Maybe git-p4 is broken?
  error: last command exited with $?=128
  not ok 3 - basic git p4 clone
  #
  #		git p4 clone --dest="$git" //depot &&
  #		test_when_finished cleanup_git &&
  #		(
  #			cd "$git" &&
  #			git log --oneline >lines &&
  #			test_line_count = 1 lines
  #		)
  #

I guess I will keep digging, Dscho
