t5150-request-pull.sh fails on newest master in Debian

When compiling newest master (v2.0.1-472-g6f92e5f) on Debian 7.5 (64-bit), t5150-request-pull.sh fails when compiling with

$ make configure $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/varprg/git.master.v2.0.1-472-g6f92e5f $ make prefix=/usr/local/varprg/git.master.v2.0.1-472-g6f92e5f $ make $ cd t $ ./t5150-request-pull.sh

I have attached the output of t5150-request-pull.sh, but in case the attachment doesn't go through, I've also pasted it at <https://gist.github.com/sunny256/0f6ff7ffee26224dbe12>. This happened on two virtual servers (64 bit) hosted on Linode, with this configuration:

$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description:    Debian GNU/Linux 7.5 (wheezy)
Release:        7.5
Codename:       wheezy

$ gcc --version gcc (Debian 4.7.2-5) 4.7.2

Both servers are (of course) updated with new packages from apt-get.

The test worked on my laptop which runs Ubuntu Studio 13.10. Have tried recompiling several times, and it fails on Debian every time.

git bisect says the bad commit is 6f92e5ff3 ("Merge branch 'dt/refs-check-refname-component-sse", 2014-07-02 12:53:07 -0700), but that's a merge. Both parent commits works, so could this be an evil merge?

When compiling parent commit 745224e test 6 is disabled, could that be the reason?

Parent commit a02ad88 passes all 7 tests.
