Hm...that what I feared most has just happened. I tried to bisect my problem when I realized that it wasn't goint to take 2 hours and a lot of reboots like with the kernel :-) And I soon realized that something was wrong when I was running 'make install'. I had two terminals open, one with the regular user with which I was compiling git, and the other with the root user where I run 'make install'. After compiling with the regular user and running 'make install' with the root user from the other terminal the whole compilation was happening again and strangely it was installing things in the prefix /root instead of /usr/local I simply don't know why this happened nor how. But somehow my git installation was screwed. I have just compiled the latest git and it is ok now. I am really sorry for all the noise, but I was sincerely fooled by the symptoms (as you can see in the previous email).
