Hmm, now I'm seeing a similar problem with the Cabal repo on github.

The last available commit in git://github.com/ghc/packages-Cabal.git is 
31fce20bf6a0191e26e640d1c464deea00c8ac4d.

If I do a checkout from http://darcs.haskell.org/packages/Cabal.git I get up to 
commit bc794b750d844b2b4716c6d25627cd0dd051e374.

Running a git fsck on the darcs.haskell repo shows the same problem you found 
below:

$ git fsck
error in commit cc2f67f98fbc246f010516c71722d5c3432e0a2b: invalid 
author/committer line - missing space before email
$ git show cc2f67f98fbc246f010516c71722d5c3432e0a2b

    Added support for users behind proxy servers, reading system settings from t

Oddly, this commit does not seem to be in the github repo, even though the 
commit date is 2007. 

$ git show cc2f67f98fbc246f010516c71722d5c3432e0a2b
fatal: bad object cc2f67f98fbc246f010516c71722d5c3432e0a2b

I'm rather confused about what is happening here.
