Now it appeared on next as well, so it's time to look a little bit deeper.
This test case of t1450 fails:
test_expect_success 'tag pointing to something else than its type' '
To debug more, I added an exit 0 here to inspect the file named out:
diff --git a/t/t1450-fsck.sh b/t/t1450-fsck.sh

What OS X are you running? I started a loop
while : ; do ./t1450-fsck.sh || break; done
and it hasn't failed yet. It is
$ uname -a
Darwin mackeller.inf.ethz.ch 11.4.0 Darwin Kernel Version 11.4.0: Mon Apr 9 19:32:15 PDT 2012; root:xnu-1699.26.8~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64
I reverted the last change in fsck.c (Use the streaming interface), but that doesn't help
Looking into the trash directory and looking at the files, we can see that the .git/index is different
between Linux and Mac OS X.
Is there a good way to debug the index file?
You can run 'git ls-files --debug' which should give you all the data in
the index, and then perhaps run diff over that to determine the
differences...
