It's a Heisenbug. I see different failure modes:

error: inflate: data stream error (incorrect header check)
fatal: serious inflate inconsistency

fatal: premature end of pack file, 79 bytes missing

fatal: premature end of pack file, 72 bytes missing

(and I even saw successful runs). It's always the same pack,
pack-54fa663f5ec35*.pack. But running index-pack --verify manually does
not fail. The packs look good because the installed index-pack (which was
built without this topic) does not report an error, either.

Any clues?
