I couldn't find any such examples. However, I did find several tags
with no "tagger" line at all: git.git has "v0.99" and linux.git has
many such tags starting with "v2.6.11" ending with "v2.6.13-rc3".

It seems that `git cat-file -p` doesn't like such tags too – if there
is no "tagger", it doesn't display *any* header lines. More bugs?
