git v1.7.9-rc0's new credential-cache feature has a bug in which it
fails with "fatal: socket path is too long to fit in sockaddr" when
the expansion of ~/.git-credential-cache/socket is too long.  Since
the test suite sets HOME to 

        (source dir)/t/trash directory.t0301-credential-cache/

and on autobuilders the source directory is itself long, this causes
test suite failures that show up on autobuilders but not when building
normally.  Oops.

Luckily this only affects experimental, and now that we know about it,
we can fix it.  More analysis is in the upstream report.
