OK, so the version you have (58ba4) is the latest fast-import after the strbuf.c series went in. The one immediately before that series was 4bf538 and is probably actually stable. So I wonder, can you test 4bf538 and then if it is good bisect between those two commits? There must be a memory corruption introduced by one of the strbuf changes... -- Shawn.
