Hmm. I hope you won't take this as an argument for not fixing it, because it is a clear regression! I tried git version 1.6.3.4, and it works flawlessly with exactly this server! Even during bisecting, some versions worked, some didn't (these after the mentioned commit...) So I think this commit didn't only refactor things, but unintentionally changed the behavior. And this must be the problem. As I'm not into this code, and the refactoring was not completely trivial, I was not able to quickly find the place where the behavior was changed...
