To summarize: - "$Storable::interwork_56_64bit = 1;" can be used to work around that particular brand of breakage; - The interwork_* option does not take care of similar cases in which a git-svn repository is generated on one machine and read by another[2], though. Hence my happiness at the arrival of Jason's patch.
