I tried to rebase a commit, that was both quite large and affected a lot
of binary files, and got "fatal: corrupt patch".

        ~/git/psas/wiki$ git-rebase origin
        First, rewinding head to replay your work on top of it...
        Checking 2526 files out...

        fatal: corrupt patch at line 2712187
        Patch failed at 0001.

        When you have resolved this problem run "git rebase --continue".
        If you would prefer to skip this patch, instead run "git rebase --skip".
        To restore the original branch and stop rebasing run "git rebase 
--abort".

I seem to recall a similar problem a couple of days ago with the same
version of git, though I'm fuzzy on the details. I think maybe it
involved very small patches touching binary files. I don't recall
encountering git-rebase issues with the 1.4 series and earlier, but I
wasn't working with this repository yet either.
