Could reproduce the problem with a 'git clone' of the above and other 
external repositories.
Updating an existing repo with 'git fetch' apparently works.

No problem when a local repo is cloned. No problem on Cygwin 1.5.

According to strace output (attached), the error message "bad address" 
is from the child process git-index-pack. Function 
fhandler_base::wait_overlapped() returns Windows error 998 
(ERROR_NOACCESS). Then readv(0, ., 1) fails with errno 14 (EFAULT).

Problem in git or Cygwin DLL ?
