Thanks for the bug report. Indeed the git-core package is broken on lenny/i386 since the last point release on Saturday. Sadly nobody caught that bug when the package was in proposed-updates. It's only i386, that's affected, because of oddities on the uploader's build machine. The autobuilt ones look fine. I scheduled a binNMU. A quick fix is to upgrade to the version in proposed-updates when it's available there latest tomorrow evening. Sorry Philipp Kern
