Hrm, has this ever been resolved?

Thank you for asking.
My local git version is 1.7.5.4, the server version that I actually
ended up pushing the files to was however still some 1.6.x.
So it was a false alarm. Sorry about that.

Not really.  Pushing or fetching by a new version of Git against old
version of Git *should* work; otherwise it is a bug.
