Umm. Stephen - this is the first time you even *describe* the problem.

Your previous emails were just "hey, submodules don't work, fix it".

Why do you then call Dscho stupid for pointing out that you never even 
bothered to reveal any details of what your problem was?

But it's not clear how you even got into that state to begin with. How did 
your index get that confused? You said "I had to rewind one project back 
to a known good state", but considering the output, it looks like you 
didn't actually rewind it, but left it in some half-way state. 

A "git reset" should have reset the index, or you could probably have done 
something like "git add <submodule>" to basically force the index entry 
for just that submodule to the current state it had.

At a guess, it *looks* like you reset the submodules themselves, but never 
reset the superproject.
