Looking closer, I see that the memory suckers do appear to be git, from

That would mean that you do have Linus' patch then. Grep cvsimport for
repack and remove the -a -- and consider using his recent patch to
rev-list.

My dmesg talks about an earlier cvs segfault. Nasty tree you have here
-- it's breaking all sorts of things... and teaching us a thing or two
about the import process.

Committed patch 249100 (origin 2005-08-20 05:05:58)

Hmmm? How can you be at patch 249100 and still be a good year ahead of
me? Have you told cvsps to cut off old history?

Another thing I found is that this import uses a lot of $TMPDIR, so if
your TMPDIR is small, you'll hit all sorts of problems.
