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.

Well, okay. The (outdated) server
runs on openSUSE 11.1,
has kernel 2.6.27.39-0.2-default x86_64 GNU/Linux, 
uses git version 1.6.0.2
and gettext (GNU gettext-runtime) 0.17 .

As I said earlier, `git push` worked in the beginning and just stopped
working one day.
I can still reproduce this error, so let me know if you want more info.
