http git and curl 7.16.0

I seem to be having a problem doing an http checkout with git built with curl 7.16.0 enabled. If I build against curl 7.16.0 and try a clone, I get:

git clone http://dmlb2000.homelinux.org/~dmlb2000/git-repos/local/castfs.git error: Unable to start request error: Could not interpret heads/master as something to pull

If I rebuild git against curl 7.15.5 then I get: git clone http://dmlb2000.homelinux.org/~dmlb2000/git-repos/local/castfs.git got 9a985de4a4cfa973a4573828df4cbb2e4f66c419 walk 9a985de4a4cfa973a4573828df4cbb2e4f66c419 got c431dee75dfadb4c6f81bd95fa1ae44b2b07b359 got 6e645158ba349eaa68caa4c37d18412b30bfd76d walk c431dee75dfadb4c6f81bd95fa1ae44b2b07b359 got e452f63c2af324254b7f65f955cbb5ac8efa6762 got

and the checkout finishes.

Has any one else seen this?

FWIW, I've seen the same with curl 7.16.0 on a Solaris 9 machine. It worked fine with curl 7.15.0.
