Well, this is my first time using git-bisect (which seems like a VERY cool tool), but iterating through, using $ make clean ; make -j 4 ; cd t ; sh t1000-read-tree-m-3way.sh ; cd ..

The first bad commit is:

933bf40a5c6328b6c022b636f45a6f2c48c3838e is first bad commit

    Start moving unpack-trees to "struct tree_desc"
    
    This doesn't actually change any real code, but it changes the interface
    to unpack_trees() to take an array of "struct tree_desc" entries, the same
    way the tree-walk.c functions do.
    
    The reason for this is that we would be much better off if we can do the
    tree-unpacking using the generic "traverse_trees()" functionality instead
    of having to the special "unpack" infrastructure.
    
    This really is a pretty minimal diff, just to change the calling
    convention. It passes all the tests, and looks sane. There were only two
    users of "unpack_trees()": builtin-read-tree and merge-recursive, and I
    tried to keep the changes minimal.

I'll install the newest Xcode and see if that fixes things.

Before doing so, perhaps bisect between v1.5.2.4 and v1.5.3-rc5 woudl be very helpful.
