Googling for your error message turns up only one other instance: a
bug in pidgin where the result was "this seems like a bug in gnutls."
I hate to say "it's not our bug" without knowing exactly what is
causing it, though. And it does seem odd that it works with 1.5.3.8.
I wonder if there is some difference in the way we are calling curl
that matters.

It appears that git 1.5.3.8 on Debian links to libcurl3-gnutls whereas,
at least for me, git 1.5.4 on Debian links to libcurl4-gnutls (or
libcurl4-openssl).

Have you tried Git 1.5.4 with libcurl3-gnutls? It seems the package from
Debian unstable is built with it. I have backported Git 1.5.4 to Etch
with libcurl3-gnutls and I have not noticed any problems with https

Yes. I've tried the Debian git 1.5.3.8 and git 1.5.4 with whatever they 
are linked to (libcurl3-gnutls as you point out).

When I decided to build & bisect to see if I could troubleshoot, I ended 
up building with libcurl4-gnutls-dev installed first. When compiled 
against libcurl4-openssl-dev things works. 

So it definately seems specific to how git uses libcurl and how it, in 
turn, uses gnutls.
