odd "error: packfile foo.pack cannot be accessed" errors from "git svn fetch"

I've been trying to import the FreeBSD SVN repository (which I have
copied to a local directory using "svnsync").  It seems to be going
fairly well, though I've had to interrupt and restart the "git svn fetch
--all" command a couple of times due to necessary reboots.

However I noticed errors similar to the following today as it was
running, particularly between these revision lines:

r158178 = dfd866111e2d8b27056d445ce1109ca3301f7dda (refs/remotes/svn/stable/6)
	A	usr.bin/lastcomm/lastcomm.c
	A	usr.bin/lastcomm/pathnames.h
[[....]]
error: packfile ./objects/pack/pack-a65415929f8bae9dacf4e81a3d9201135915c984.pack cannot be accessed
[[....]]
	A	sys/sys/msg.h
	A	sys/sys/socket.h
r158179 = db56f27606a021514e1f8ec483ce6b7abd4d6966 (refs/remotes/svn/releng/6.1)

(this is from git version 1.7.0.6, running on Mac OS X 10.6.3 with all
files on an HFS+ case-sensitive journaled filesystem)

Several such lines were printed, all while adding the same revision,
with several different pack files mentioned.

Was it my mistake to interrupt the fetch?  (I assumed interrupts would
be cleanly handled -- they really should be, nay must be if git-svn is
to be robust enough for real-world uses!  I don't do perl, though I had
a peek and did see at least some mention of SIGINT....)

Is there any way to check the integrity of the result other than by
manually checking out various releases from each SVN and Git and
comparing them?

I could start it over again in a hopefully more stable environment if
really necessary, but it's already run for over two days now, and
already this isn't my first attempt (getting the branches config close
to correct has been far more difficult than it should ever have been --
this info is already in SVN!  hopefully the GSoC native SVN support will
help in this regard too!)
