Ok, that's different. It worked for me, several times. As far as I can
tell, the biggest thing is just a difference in OS and the fact that I'm
not running the git daemon from xinetd, but directly by hand as myself.

Umm. Your git daemon is probably running as "nobody", and simply doesn't
have write permissions to the archive, does it?

iow, I think you simply need to make sure that git-daemon will have write
permission to the thing. Either by making the whole repository writable by
nobody, or by running git-daemon as the proper user.
