shows a test that expects "git cat-file: could not get object_info"
gets "invalid object type".  What is curious is that most of the
other workflow runs do not get this error.  Only on the 32-bit run.

Rings any bell?

Thanks.

That's clearly a bug in code I added, but I haven't been able to
reproduce it yet. There's a 32 bit Debian box on the GCC farm that I
tested this on, and there the tests works just fine, odd...
