I already happened to see one like that, and it was clearly imported
through remote-hg. I've not been able to reproduce though, and the
parser in git-fast-import seemed already robust enough to me to not
allow this kind of messed-up line. I will see if I can find some time
to reproduce/investigate this deeper.
