IOW, please try this patch. I am planning to queue it to 'maint' as part
of 1.7.0.1 if this is the right solution (which I obviously think it is).

Subject: [PATCH] Fix use of mutex in threaded grep
The program can decide at runtime not to use threading even if the
support is compiled in. In such a case, mutexes are not necessary
and left uninitialized. But the code incorrectly tried to take and
release the read_sha1_mutex unconditionally.
